He Tried To End His Life and Survived and That Moment Became the Turning Point That Saved Him

from The Dad Project · host Nemash Patel

Juggy planned to end his life by driving into a motorway bridge. He felt trapped, overwhelmed and exhausted by the weight he had carried in silence. When he survived the crash and walked away unharmed, everything changed. Seeing his father break down in tears forced him to realise that there was still something to fight for. In this episode Juggy speaks openly about the darkest period of his life, the pressure he felt growing up, the expectations placed on him and the silent suffering that led to that moment. He talks about rebuilding himself physically and mentally, becoming The Indian Body Coach and finding purpose through helping others. He also reflects on fatherhood, identity and the lessons he wants to pass on to his children. Juggy’s story is raw, honest and full of the strength it takes to choose life when everything feels impossible. This is one of the most powerful conversations in the series.
