This week, I explore what happens when the desire to win takes over everything else. From the punishing highs and lows of jockey life to my own experiences in acting and stand-up, I ask: at what cost do we chase victory? In a town buzzing with betting shops and a sport that glorifies winning, I question the toll this mindset takes on our mental health, identity, and relationships. Featuring reflections from legendary jockeys, psychologists, and personal stories, this episode dives into the thin line between ambition and obsession—and what it means to find worth beyond the winner’s circle.
