Niall Breslin has a story which many people would have never imagined. From having a career in professional rugby for Leinster which led him to representing Ireland in the under 21s World Cup to being the frontman of multiple award-winning band The Blizzards before embarking on a solo career and coaching on The Voice of Ireland. In this gripping episode Niall opens up about suffering with a general anxiety disorder which has led him to becoming an ambassador for mental health in Ireland. Niall also talks about why he was completely broke after a successful career with The Blizzards, why he believes the Brit School drains the 'rawness' out of artists before offering some sterling advice on how to fight back against mental health issues.
