    S5E04 · Paul Wintle

    VIRTUS PODCAST — EPISODE 4 | Paul Wintle This week on the Virtus Podcast, Lachie sits down with one of the original Virtus athletes and a longtime friend, Paul Wintle. Paul’s journey is one of grit, growth, and genuine transformation. A father of two and an aircon mechanic by trade, Paul has spent over a decade pursuing personal development, health changes, and a better way of living. Now, after years of walking the path himself, he’s stepped into the world of coaching, helping others make the changes he once had to make alone. In this episode, we explore Paul’s evolution from athlete to coach, the mindset shifts that shaped his last 10 years, fatherhood and balance, growing alongside a supportive community, and why long-term change often starts with a single, honest decision. Whether you’re on your own journey of growth or just love hearing real conversations with good people, this episode is full of valuable insights.
