In the newest episode of Understanding Men, Luke and Fraser take a long hard look at responsibility, and highlight the significance it has had in their own lives, especially through recovery. Taking responsibility is a key pillar of the 12 step recovery programme which both Luke and Fraser have undertaken, and regular listeners may be familiar with the question that they both ask of themselves; 'What's my part in this?'
They discuss how resentment, honesty and responsibility can be closely tied, and share how holding on to resentment can allow someone to not understand the part they have played in their own discomfort or upset.
Finally, they touch on the power of taking responsibility in sport, and using it as an opportunity to address and improve upon existing weaknesses to become an all around better performing athlete.
