Coach of the Decade: Gordon Walker on Coaching Lisa Carrington & K4 Olympic Gold
Gordy Walker is arguably New Zealand’s best coach of all time. He’s certainly in the conversation. He’s won the Halberg Coach of the Year award six times and in 2021 was crowned the Halberg coach of the decade – and after listening to this you’ll understand why.This was a really special episode. In the first half we learn about Gordy the athlete, his string of Coast-to-Coast wins, adventure races where he didn’t sleep for days, enduring pain and where his determination and eye for detail comes from.And the second half is a journey into the mind of an elite coach. The last 45 mins about what the Kiwi K4 team achieved in Paris – and how they did it – is remarkable. Stick around till the end, it’s world class coaching and leadership brilliantly articulated.Gordy is a private and humble guy and doesn’t really do podcasts like this, so we felt super privileged to be part of this convo.We're also super stoked to have Gordy on the books of B2B Speakers, so if you’d like him to share his insights or stories at your function or event, or perhaps you’d like him and Lisa Carrington together – we can organise that too - flick us a message by going to www.b2bspeakers.co.nz.

The 10,000 Days Project - Seamus 1:1 with Di Foster (Accidental Business Owners #17)
Welcome to the latest episode of Accidental Business Owners presented by Icehouse.The premise of the show is that last year we left their 9 to 5s to go all in on the podcast – and thought it would be interesting to document our journey.Last year we also started working with a business and mindset coach Di Foster, who you might remember as a B2B guest, and quickly realized she was the perfect foil to help us work through all the highs and lows of running a business.This episode is a 1-on-1 with Seamus and Di.These chats are both pretty raw and there's a good dose of emotion sprinkled throughout which took Seamus a bit by surprise.This year we've linked up with Icehouse which is a community for kiwis wanting to take their business to the next level. Their practical programmes, one-on-one business coaching and short workshops are designed specifically for people who own and manage their businesses, and the leaders they back to get things done. It's challenging, it's supportive and it's all about growing smarter and faster.To learn more, visit Icehouse | Where Kiwi Businesses Grow Smarter & FasterAccidental Business Owners features our business and mindset coach Di Foster and she is teaming up with our mate Sophie for an epic cause.Two years ago, Sophie's mum was diagnosed with breast cancer – and while she watched her mum at her worst as she went through surgery, chemo and radiation – she also saw her dad quietly fall apart. He didn’t know how to process his emotions or who to turn to.It made Sophie wonder - if nine Kiwi women are diagnosed with breast cancer every single day, why aren’t we having more conversations that include the men in their lives?So she did something about it – and created an epic event in Christchurch that brings it all together - the Tits and Tees Tournament. It involves 18 holes of golf, beers and lunch. Last year she raised $45,000 for the Beast Cancer Foundation, and this year the goal is 50k!We think it's a brilliant concept and Sophie is a legend that needs your support...Check it out here: https://fundraise.bcf.org.nz/fundraisers/sophiejordan Hosted on Acast.
