  • The High Performance Journey EP5 - Abhishek Pandher - The Man Who Has Ran a 1/2 Marathon Every Day For Over 6 years

    The High Performance Journey – Abhishek Pandher: The Man Who Ran a Half Marathon Every Day for Six Years

    What does it take to show up every single day for six years — and run a half marathon, regardless of what life throws at you?

    In this episode of The High Performance Journey, I sit down with Abhishek Pandher, a man whose extraordinary running streak challenges everything we think we know about discipline, consistency and human potential.

    We explore what drives someone to commit to running more than 21 kilometres every day, how he pushes through fatigue and difficult moments, and the sacrifices involved in sustaining such an incredible routine alongside work and everyday life.

    But this conversation goes deeper than running.

    It's about the power of keeping promises to yourself, the difference between motivation and discipline, and what happens when ordinary actions are repeated consistently over an extraordinary period of time.

    How do you keep going when motivation disappears? What does a commitment like this teach you about yourself? And how do you know when you're pushing your limits — versus pushing too far?

    Abhishek's story is a powerful reminder that extraordinary results don't always come from one defining moment. Sometimes, they come from making the decision to show up again tomorrow.

    If you're interested in endurance, resilience, mindset and what it really takes to build a life around consistency, this episode is for you.

    One day at a time. One run at a time. One promise kept at a time.

    This is The High Performance Journey with Abhishek Pandher.

  • The High Performance Journey - EP4 - Chester Maglo - Sleep, Performance & The Cost of Outworking Yourself

    The High Performance Journey – Chester Maglo: Sleep, Performance & The Danger of Outworking Yourself

    What if the very thing you believe is making you successful is actually holding you back?

    We live in a world that celebrates the early mornings, the long hours, the relentless hustle and the ability to keep pushing when everyone else stops. But what happens when pushing harder is no longer the answer?

    In this episode of The High Performance Journey, I sit down with Chester Maglo — NHS Respiratory and Sleep Scientist, sleep and performance coach, and founder of The SomnoScientist.

    Chester knows first-hand what it means to push your limits, but his own experience with sleep apnoea forced him to rethink the relationship between health, discipline and performance.

    We explore why so many ambitious people struggle to switch off, why men often mistake exhaustion for weakness, and how the obsession with productivity can come at a cost.

    We also challenge the myths around sleep, the glorification of the 5am routine, and the belief that success means simply working harder than everyone else.

    Because high performance isn't just about how much you can push yourself. It's about understanding when to push, when to recover, and how to build a life you can sustain.

    If you're ambitious, constantly chasing the next level, or finding it difficult to slow down without feeling guilty, this conversation might make you rethink everything.

    It's time to stop asking how much more you can do — and start asking what it takes to perform at your best for the long term.

    This is The High Performance Journey with Chester Maglo.

  • The High Performance Journey - Episode 3 - Dave Crane - Behind the Mic: Performance, Pressure & Reinvention

    A podcast exploring what it really takes to perform at your best — the ambition, the pressure, the setbacks, and the moments that shape who we become.

    In Episode 3, I'm joined by Dave Crane for a conversation that goes far beyond the microphone.

    Dave has spent years performing in front of audiences, building a career around communication, leadership and entertainment. But behind the confidence, the experience and the public persona is a much more personal story of performance, pressure and reinvention.

    We talk about finding your voice, dealing with pressure, success, failure, money, identity, relationships and what it really costs to keep reinventing yourself.

    What happens when the person everyone sees isn't the whole story?

    And when the old version of you no longer fits — who do you become next?

    This is The High Performance Journey.

  • The High Performance Journey - Episode 2 - Drewe Broughton - Surrender

    A podcast exploring what it really takes to perform at your best — and what happens when life challenges everything you thought you knew about success.

    In Episode 2, I'm joined by Drewe Broughton for a powerful conversation about Surrender.

    Drewe takes us beyond the usual conversation around achievement, discipline and control, and into something much deeper — learning when to push, when to let go, and when surrender can actually become a source of strength.

    We talk about identity, fear, vulnerability, pressure, failure, transformation, purpose and the moments in life when you realise that trying to control everything might actually be holding you back.

    Because sometimes the biggest step forward isn't about pushing harder.

    It's about surrendering.

  • The High Performance Journey - Episode 1 - Joackim Walstad - Beautiful State

    The High Performance Journey - Joakim Walstad - A Beautiful State.

    A podcast about what it really takes to perform at your best — in business, in sport, and in life.

    Today, I'm joined by Joakim Walstad, exploring the powerful idea of the Beautiful State — what it means to get yourself into the right state of mind, unlock your potential, and perform when it matters most.

    We talk about mindset, pressure, performance, emotions, and the ability to create the internal state that allows you to thrive.

    This isn't about chasing perfection. It's about understanding yourself, finding your edge, and becoming the best version of who you can be.

    This is The High Performance Journey.
