High Performance Podcast

The resource content is taken from the conversations Jake has had with people in sport, business and the arts. Such as adventurer Bear Grylls, England Rugby manager Eddie Jones, actor Sam Heughan – discussing what drives them, their values, the importance of resilience and failure in achieving success. We hope to highlight the importance of having the right mindset for children to achieve what they want to in life.
