Campbell Johnstone Recap: How To Crush Stigma: Being The First Openly Gay All Black

How to crush stigma : being the first openly gay All Black with Campbell Johnstone Campbell Johnstone is a Former All Black and Crusader. He also played rugby in Russia, Wales and France.  Campbell grew up in rural New Zealand near Hastings, where his love for rugby grew everyday when he played out in the paddocks with his brothers. He spoke to me about his visualisation practices that he believes helped him achieve that coveted spot on the team as an All Black. Campbell has recently opened up and spoken about his sexuality. Campbell is now recognised as the first openly gay All Black. He is speaking up now to try to eliminate the stigma around being gay in professional sport, hoping to help others come out and have a different experience than he did. Campbell was incredibly vulnerable and honest and said that he suppressed this part of himself through his entire career out of fear that it would derail his dream of being an All Black. I cannot stress enough how courageous and brave Campbell has been. I am incredibly honoured to have him on the show.This episode is one that needs to be shared. Please share this with the people you know, and help us spread Campbell’s message.Connect with Campbell here - https://www.linkedin.com/in/campbell-johnstone-541b0257/----Click here to Become a VIP supporter of Lead On Purpose: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1583287/supportIf you would like to help James continue to bring on world-class guests, please consider making a small recurring donation to cover the back end, admin and editing costs.
