From Sidelines to Pit Lanes | Adapting to Win in Any Arena with Brendan Egan
Description
Welcome back to another episode of The Kaizen Performance Podcast
In todays conversation we chatted with Performance Coach Brendan Egan.
Brendan's career has taken him from the heart of Ireland's GAA high performance scene to the adrenaline-fuelled world of Formula 2 racing. As a performance coach, he's worked with some of the most driven athletes on the planet—whether they're fighting for an All-Ireland title or milliseconds on the track. In this conversation, Brendan reflects on his early days in Gaelic Games, the lessons learned from multi-disciplinary team environments, and how those same principles now guide his work with elite motorsport athletes.
From the challenges of adapting to a new sporting culture to the universal truths of preparation, nutrition, and mindset, Brendan shares a rare inside look at two very different arenas united by the pursuit of excellence. We break down what GAA players can learn from motorsport, the habits that separate good from great, and the 1% daily actions that drive consistent improvement. Whether you're a coach, athlete, or performance enthusiast, you'll come away with insights you can apply to your own pursuit of peak performance.
