Sue Parris is the founder of Simply Human Ltd and host of The Changing Room podcast, a platform exploring the emotional experiences that sit behind life in football.

With a background spanning football welfare, education, and counselling, Sue has spent years supporting professional players, young people, and families navigating the opportunities, pressures, transitions, and uncertainties that can accompany the football journey.

Through one-to-one work, teaching, welfare support, and conversations with current and former players, parents, and practitioners across the game, Sue has developed a deep understanding of the emotional impact football decisions can have on identity, self-worth, and wellbeing.

Her work is rooted in a simple belief:

Football may be part of a young person's story.

It is not their whole story.
