#53 - Charlie Dixon - Life After Footy & The State of the World
🎙️ In This Candid Episode of the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast, I sit down with Charlie Dixon — one of the AFL’s most recognisable figures, known for his powerhouse presence on the field and his unfiltered honesty off it.
From the highs and lows of professional footy to the moment he decided to step away from the game, Charlie opens up about the mental and physical toll of elite sport — and what life looks like beyond it.
We dive into:
🇦🇺 The state of Australia right now — and what’s really going on beneath the headlines
🌏 The big global issues shaping our future
🏉 What it’s like to walk away from the AFL spotlight
🧠 How shifting gears changed his perspective on success, health, and balance
This is a raw, grounded conversation with a bloke who’s been at the top, made tough calls, and isn’t afraid to speak his mind about the world we’re living in.
