What does it take to stay calm under pressure, bounce back from setbacks, and lead with humility?

In this episode of Empowering Leaders, Luke sits down with Mike Hussey, Mr Cricket himself, for a conversation that goes far beyond the boundary line.

Known for his resilience, consistency and quiet strength, Mike reflects on the long road to his debut for Australia, the mental demands of elite performance, and the routines that helped him thrive under pressure. Now a respected coach and commentator, he shares what he’s learned about leadership from his time in the IPL, the power of clear communication, and why values like respect, curiosity and humility matter more than ever.

Mike embodies the kind of growth that comes from showing up, staying grounded, and never losing the love of the game.

You’ll hear Luke reference his recent conversion with the incredible Dr Peter Rea - listen or re-listen here.
