Customer Reviews
I like this!
Right off the bat, this is a solid, high-quality podcast to listen to for anyone wanting to apply high performance into their day-to-day lives, particularly in the midst of the mass mediocritisation going on in our society. The questions and matters discussed are practical and can be applied by anyone regardless what field they’re in. I look forward to seeing more high-value, genuine guests on the show.
Brilliant
I am a senior partner at a global investment bank and have found this podcast to be an outstanding source of great content - for both my personal and professional life. Jake and Damian do a fantastic job carrying a wonderful natural conversation with very successful individuals, while being able to skillfully dive into the particulars of what makes that person tick. I take away very valuable bits from each episode. I have recommended many of the episodes to my colleagues and clients - all with very positive feedback. Keep up the strong work!
If possible it would be brilliant if the team could do a podcast with Kristen Holmes. Kristen is currently at Whoop (VP of Performance) and has a very impressive sports background - former member of the U.S. National Field Hockey Team and one of the most successful coaches in Ivy League history, having won 12 league titles in 13 seasons and the first national championship ever for Princeton University and the Ivy League.
Best learning tool ever
I’ve recently discovered the pod and have been bingeing it nonstop. As a college soccer coach in the US being able to hear from top professionals such as Robin Van Persie, Dina Asher Smith, and Toto Wolff have been enlightening. I’ve taken notes, reflected on my own culture, and really grown because of this podcast. Thank you for this Mr. Humphrey and Prof. Hughes!!
