Brilliant

Absolutely brilliant. Justin Langer is an oracle. Everyone should listen to his life philosophy and think deeply about the words he chooses.

Loved your Leadership podcast with Sharron Flahive!

Thank you for a great interview with Sharron Flahive. It is fantastic to hear you raise the voices of both women and men who are such positive role models yet behind the scenes of sports. You have my attention Nick!
