Join us for this life-changing episode with James Whittaker, global podcaster and motivational speaker from Win the Day, who’s interviewed over 500 of the world’s most popular podcasters. Aggregating wisdom from across the globe, James brings attention to how people in any situation can win the day in practical ways. Challenging the mindset of the masses: ‘people expect just to feel good’, James explains that motivation wanes for everyone and why the concept between process and motivation is so critical to practise every day. Topics of discussion include: It’s up to you about how you feel day to day Where you spend your time can determine how you can bring your higher game Bridging the gap between performance and potential What value can you build into yourself so other people connect with you Reduce exposure to negative people – reduce value and stock you have in relation to that person If we don’t take accountability to our situations, we can’t be empowered to change or change our circumstances.

We believe everyone needs to access the tools to build their own mental fitness to live an easier life. Sport stars aren’t lucky - they’re the product of years of building a mentally fit approach to help them succeed in all parts of their life.
