Kieron Achara is a former professional basketball player who has recently retired from a career spanning more than two decades. Kieron was captain of the GB Squad earning 105 international caps and competed in both the 2012 Olympics and 2018 Commonwealth Games.
Kieron now works as consultant to several organisations where he champions athlete transition and mental health awareness. He is also patron/ founder of Rocks in the Community which uses sport as a tool to improve people's lives.
In this conversation, Kieron speaks openly about his own transition from basketball, the challenges he faced and the benefits he is now experiencing as a result. We discuss the connection between career and identity and the steps we can all take to support our own transitions in whatever form these take.
