What made you want to be a contestant on Survivor? Survivor really became my go-to TV show to watch during lockdown. I got totally hooked, binge-watching season after season and the more I watched, the more I thought: "I'd absolutely love to be on that show!"
What qualities did you think you'd bring to the game? I saw myself as a strong physical player, but I also thought my positive energy, authenticity, and social skills could be real game changers. Survivor is as much about strategy and alliances as it is about physical prowess, so I wanted to bring a well-rounded approach to the game.
How did you prepare yourself mentally and physically for taking part? In preparation I focused on increasing my physical fitness by dedicating more time to the gym. Mentally, I constantly reminded myself of my blessings, even when faced with challenges.
Did you have a strategy of how you were going to play the game? My strategy was all about using my communication skills, authenticity and social charm to build strong alliances. I wanted people to trust me and feel comfortable working with me. At the same time I didn't want to be underestimated physically so I aimed to showcase my strength when necessary.
How competitive are you? I'm incredibly competitive and football has been a huge part of fuelling that fire. Competing at a semi-pro level has given me a taste for competition and the drive to succeed. I brought that same spirit to Survivor, ready to battle it out in every challenge.
What kind of challenges were you most looking forward to? I was most looking forward to assault courses that test numerous strengths.
How did you cope with living on a beach with no home comforts? Living on that beach was so tough, that's for sure. The lack of food and seasoning was tough for someone like me who loves their flavours. Plus, having sand stick to you constantly and dealing with those flies made it quite jarring but I knew what I'd signed up for and I was determined to tough it out.
How did you cope with the hunger? Hunger was probably one of the most challenging aspects of the game. To manage it I often reminded myself of the people in the world who have it much worse. That perspective helped me keep my hunger in check but I won't lie, there were moments when I felt absolutely drained and weak due to the lack of sustenance.
What did you learn from being on the show? Survivor taught me a lot about myself and life in general. It reminded me of the importance of putting myself first at times, recognising my own worth, and having faith that even in the darkest moments things can turn around. Embracing my emotions was another big takeaway – they're not a weakness but a strength, showing my realness, vulnerability, and helping others relate to me on a deeper level.[1]
