Tired of being misunderstood all the time? Are you looking for ways to stop living up to other people's expectations? Then this podcast is for you.  Today, Jay Shetty welcomes world-ranking professional tennis player Nick Kyrgios. Nick burst onto the pro tennis scene in 2012 after a prolific junior tennis career. Since his start he has captivated fans with a larger than life personality, passion for the game, and unpredictability. Kyrgios has won 7 singles titles and 4 doubles titles in his career, but 2022 marked the first time Kyrgios displayed his dominance making it to his first Grand Slam Final, winning 3 singles titles, and 3 doubles titles. He also reached the Quarter Finals of the 2022 US Open beating then-ranked No. 1 Daniil Medvedev and is one of the few players on Tour who have beaten the Big Three (Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal) at least once.  In this conversation, Nick opens up about how his strong personality online has sparked hate and negativity - how misunderstood his persona is and how different he is with friends and family. Nick also briefly talks about dark times, dealing with depression and addiction and turning the most difficult phase of his life into a pivotal moment to have the best year of his life when he reached the Wimbledon final. He also talks about looking at life beyond tennis and what awaits him in the future. In this episode, you will learn: How to accept your flaws How to overcome fear and anger How to turn your life around How to deal with negativity How to become your best self A truly inspiring story begins with a challenge and ends with a triumph, and Nick has just proven to us that success isn't elusive when you dream big and work hard for it.  With Love and Gratitude, Jay Shetty What We Discuss: 00:00 Intro 00:54 Enjoying Some Time Off 02:00 Nick Used to Hate Playing Tennis 03:35 Misbranded by the Media 06:00 The Effects of Promoting Negative Content 08:25 Dealing with Mental Health in Silence 10:49 Getting Out of the Darkest Moments 15:08 How Hard Work Led to Wimbledon 17:04 People Only See the Anger 19:23 People Will Always Have Something to Say 22:56 Being Okay with Leaving the Game Behind 24:52 Nick Talks About His Injury 25:46 Would You Spend Time with Your Haters? 28:25 Playing the Character of a Villain 29:55 The Best Crowd to Play For 33:32 Who is the Nice Guy Nick? 34:59 Tennis Is A White Privileged Sport! 38:34 How Media Can Negatively Affect Your Mental Health 44:26 How Strong Boundaries Make Relationships Work 49:36 An Old Conversation with Drake 51:50 Happiness is Spending Time with Family 54:44 The Many Breakdowns that People Do Not Know 59:14 What’s Keeping You Busy These Days? 01:00:30 The Best Places to Visit 01:02:00 Regrets of Losing a Loved One 01:06:44 Learning How to Bounce Back Right Away 01:07:58 The Hardest Lesson You Had to Learn 01:12:05 How Stress Can Affect How You React to People 01:16:24 Why Would You Break a Racket? 01:19:14 Routine Consistency is Hard Work 01:21:15 The Struggle of Letting People Down 01:24:13 Nick on Final Five Episode Resources: Nick Kyrgios | Website Nick Kyrgios | X Nick Kyrgios | Instagram Nick Kyrgios | Facebook Want to be a Jay Shetty Certified Life Coach?
