This week on the 10forty podcast we’re joined by Joey Boland, former Dublin senior hurler and CEO of Sports Physio Ireland, for a wide-ranging and inspiring conversation.Joey shares his journey through second-level education, including the decision to resit his Leaving Certificate after breaking his leg — a major setback that ultimately shaped his resilience and drive. He talks about the early days of his sporting life, from being dropped off at trial games alone to travelling the country with his team, often staying in teammates’ houses, playing matches, and going out for dinner together afterward. These experiences not only built character but also laid the foundation for strong, lasting relationships off the pitch — something Joey believes is crucial for success in both sport and life.We dive into:• What it really takes to become a county player – the commitment, gym work, and video analysis behind the scenes• His transition from athlete to physiotherapist – and ultimately to entrepreneur, stepping off the tools to focus on scaling his business• What Joey looks for when hiring new team members – what they’ll be doing from day one, and the emphasis he places on building a strong, positive company culture• Why health and wellbeing are more than just buzzwords – and why Joey regularly speaks on this at events across the countryFinally, we touch on Joey’s passion for health and wellbeing, and how he now speaks at events to share his knowledge and promote the importance of looking after both body and mind.👉 Connect with Joey on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joey-boland/👉 Learn more about Sports Physio Ireland: sportsphysioireland.comThis episode is brought to you by Top Drawer Talent — the Supply Chain & Procurement Specialists.HERE WE GO!
