In this episode, I share 3 keys to elite performance that I learned from my time in the NFL and from training Olympic gold medalists.

You’ll discover:

• The critical role of talent - and passion - in fueling results
• Why you must hire “A Players” at every level
• The trap of good intentions but weak plans
• Why building resilient “adaptive capacity” is key
• Why high performance takes more than skill
