  • Episode 179 - Team Culture and Leadership at Chiefs Rugby - Jay Carter
    In this episode of Talking Performance, I tried something a little different, a solo episode.

  • Episode 177 - RE RELEASE (Ep 85) Jonah Oliver - Performance Psychologist
    This is a re published episode but it was pretty epic.  Unfortunately I didn't quite nail the sound, so it is not my best work, which is a shame and I apologise for that. I am joined by performance psychologist Jonah Oliver, who works with a number of professional athletes, surgeons, entrepreneurs and business leaders and after this chat I think you will know why.Jonah does a fantastic job of making the complex word of performance psychology easy to digest in a relaxed manner which makes you (or at least has made me) review our relationship with pressure. I hope you enjoy this chat and as always if you have a minute it would be great if you could leave us a review wherever you listen to your podcasts. Send us a textSupport the showhttps://talkingperformancepod.com/
