In this episode of Shaped, we sit down with Ahmed
Saad, former AFL player for St Kilda,
to explore the defining moments that shaped his life and
career. Ahmed made history as the first AFL player of
Egyptian descent and experienced the highs and lows of
professional football. However, his journey took an unexpected
turn when he received an 18-month suspension
after testing positive for a banned substance.

Ahmed opens up about the impact of his
suspension, the lessons he learned, and how he rebuilt
his life after AFL. From the mental resilience required to move
forward to the self-development journey that
followed.

Beyond football, Ahmed discusses his faith, cultural
background, and how his experiences have shaped his
perspective on life. His story is one of redemption,
growth, and finding purpose beyond the game.
