Season 4 of the Inspire Podcast kicks off with former professional footballer Ben Markall. Ben explains to host David Berks how he went from being the most expensive teenager in the country to finding himself unmotivated and playing in the lower leagues of English Football. This lack of drive and motivation to continue playing football led to Ben developing a gambling addiction which became uncontrollable and therefore sought help. Ben now finds himself running his own business called Premier Progress which has been created to raise awareness of mental health amongst young people in professional football.
