This was an unreal chat. From Jack having me in stitches laughing, to chatting about mental health challenges, and just being intrigued throughout. Have a listen, you'll enjoy it.Jack played for Irish 20s, Ulster, Highlanders, Ospreys and Toyota Shuttles. His mental health took a huge toll on him recently and he decided to walk away and retire from rugby.We chat about his journey in the game that took him across the world to playing with All Blacks Aaron Smith and Shannon Frizzell. He shares some mad stories like the time he was detained by boarder security guards, essentially becoming an invalid for a period of time, and having to pull off the motorway to rush himself to A&E.Cheers to Jack for a great chat, was a pleasure!

Today's conversation is with Adam Ashe. Adam is a former pro rugby player for Glasgow Warriors and a Scotland International, the Co founder of Puresport, Investor and Consultant. Expect to learn Adam's path to playing at the top level in Pro Rugby, the role models along the way and key experiences which shaped him, the true highs and lows of pro sport and the injuries which Adam handled along the way. Adam's rugby journey along would have made a great episode, but the reason this conversation was such a good fit for this podcast is his insights and advice on finding how to transfer his passion and skillset outside of sport to the world of business, family, coaching and more. I interviewed Adam's cofounder at Pure Sport, Grayson Hart back in August 2021 on episode 83 so it was great to hear the role Adam played in the foundations of what is now a globally recognised brand.  This conversation is a unique insight into how Adam has continually reinvented himself and applied himself wholeheartedly across multiple areas.

Last bit of news before the music plays, for those of you with ambitions to start and scale your own podcast you may know I have my Podcast Masterclass Video course which it's been amazing to see 5 of my students already blast past 8 episodes which is one of the big common stumbling blocks for podcasters. The video course has a small cost attached to it and I know some of you may be on the fence, so I've built a free email course to give you the launchpad to start your own show and use some of my insights to build it on strong foundations.

Matthew Mansell was a keen cricketer before becoming an academy player at Bath Rugby Club. He went to play professionally in France and then pursued a career in finance. He left that career to pursue a life as an entrepreneur in the health and fitness industry. Matt is the founder of Athlo app: this app that allows gym-members and class package holders to rent out their membership to other gym-goers for cash when they're not using it, earning back on their membership fee or class pack in return. On the other side of the membership, people can access gyms without taking up a permanent membership. Matt believes the app will reduce membership churn and thus benefit gym owners - improving the retention of customers. For more on the app, follow @athloapp on Instagram.

The retirement age in Ireland is slightly younger at 32 years. Scrumhalves retire later than any other position at about thirty-six. Thomas Armstrong is an “Ex pro rugby player told to never do sport again after injury and illness. He Ignored traditional medicine and now teach others how I did it!” ”I had to retire due to a hip operation that failed. Little did I know that the root of my issues was down to my gut! I had a successful rugby career that ended abruptly, due to my early habits of diet. I had many specialists telling me to have a hip replacement which I ignored. And many doctors telling me I needed my gall to be removed due to chronic symptoms and family connections. I ignored advice and had multiple blood tests and gut test to realise I was living in a mouldy environment which led to chronic inflammation. I felt like I was having early onset dementia at 29! I found a way to recover myself and started my business True Athletic fitness Ada as a result! I felt alone! I felt isolated and not even my family believed me. But now I help others understand their body through testing and curated coaching and holistic practices to regain their health. No matter what age we all need to understand the gut and the power of the gut brain connection. I was suffering mental illness and told to take my gall out replace my hip and I said no! I have now completed ultra marathons 72 miles hadirians wall run and promote methods of recovery outside of modern medicine! I know this might seem out of left field, but I understand my body more than ever and hope I can spread these methods with as many people as possible of all ages to regain their health and live pain-free.” He joined me this week to tell me more For more information: https://tafit.co/ LinkedIn: @ThomasArmstrong Instagram: @tarmstrong89

Here's the story about what he's done since, and why he went this way...examining team cohesion and teamwork indices that contribute to consistent winning and on-field success. Ben propped for the Brumbies and the Wallabies, before embarking on analytics and forward coach positions with teams such as Western Force, Melbourne Rebels and Suntory in Japan. His company, Gain Line, founded in 2013, is changing the game around data analytics revealing that great teams are the product of the connections and linkages within. There is a wonderful dialogue around the structural layers that drive cohesion in teams, namely shared experiences, combinations and the overarching system - one for pro sport and business. As distinct from other operations and management consultancies in the industry, Gain Line places a strong focus on data analysis and quantitative research. We really appreciate this as the solutions are backed by evidence and real-world experience, like our worlds in physio and sports medicine. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Highlights

Lucas Caneda is global team leader at Uniqorn Incubator and a professional rugby player in Sarlat Rugby. Lucas grew up as a die-hard rugby player starting at the age of 5. Even though he suffered what many thought would be a career-ending knee injury, he moved to France and became a professional rugby player. After a few years in France, he joined the Sarlat Rugby Team, where Lucas met Dom Einhorn, the Founder and CEO of the UNIQORN incubator-accelerator. Lucas immediately integrated Rugby into the incubator's program where he now works as a team leader for both the incubator as well as for one of its startups, FORMATION.GG, an up-and-coming platform dedicated to eSports. A student of engineering, management and economics, self-taught in nutrition and fitness, Lucas has always had a very keen interest in business and entrepreneurship. Lucas and I discussed his influences growing up in Argentina and how rugby helped him develop his leadership philosophy. He tells me about how adversity has helped him grow and become a better rugby player, entrepreneur, team leader, and man. Learn more about Lucas and Uniqorn here: https://uniqornincubator.com/

He holds a degree in sport management and education from the University of Massachusetts-Amherst.
