Episode notes
I was privileged to interview podcasting royalty Professor Damian Hughes. He’s the co-host of UK’s most popular pod, The High Performance Podcast with Jake Humphrey and they’ve interviewed some amazing guests ranging from Mathew McConaughey, Rio Ferdinand, Alastair Campbell, Dame Kelly Holmes and Mel Robins. Damian is an international speaker and the author of many best-selling books. I was therefore honoured when Damian agreed to come on my podcast AND endorse my book, Inner Brilliance · Outer Shine: 10 Antidotes to Imposter Syndrome, Workaholism and Stress. As you might expect with Damian, this episode is jam-packed with thought provoking statements and advice about recreating high performance. We talk about: · How success leaves clues. · How to establish a culture of high performance. · The person Damian thinks of when he thinks about success. · How imposter syndrome at school, positively drove him on to where he is today. · How confidence comes from evidence. · How to create psychological safety. · The importance of a ‘blueprint’ for high performance, which is based on strengths and looking for what has already been done successfully. · And of course, sport!
