Andy McAslan - A Follicular Lymphoma Diagnosis

Join me, Fin Kelly, as I regularly explore athlete welfare and its relationship with performance by talking with sport and fitness practitioners. We gain insights into processes, outcomes, expectations, constraints and philosophies. I am a 21-year-old Open University student and Rugby Coach. I am not a specialist or attempting to be an expert. I aim to feed my and others’ curiosity and offer an honest, youthful perspective of a developing professional in order to spread information and approaches to athlete welfare. I appreciate great conversations and all things alike. I am lucky and grateful for the opportunity to talk too many of the people that will feature on my show. Why should I keep great conversation and guests knowledge to myself? For me, everyone can benefit and we can all learn together.I hope you enjoy these conversations, and learn incredible messages likewise. Thank you.
