About this Podcast:
At just 27, Archie White made the brave call to walk away from professional rugby. After nearly a decade at Harlequins, lifting trophies and running out at Twickenham, he chose to step out of the rugby bubble and build a new career in business. In this episode of The Business End, Archie opens up about identity, resilience, and the reality of transition when the career you’ve always known suddenly stops. From sacrifice and setbacks to recruitment and reinvention, his story is packed with lessons for athletes, leaders, and anyone facing change.
