Before David Galbraith ever set foot in an elite sporting environment, he spent years inside New Zealand's criminal justice system - working with serious offenders, child abuse teams, and men trying to break multi-generational cycles of violence. That foundation, he says, is what separates everything he does today from almost anyone else in his field.
David is a registered clinical psychologist and performance coach who has worked alongside some of New Zealand's greatest sporting names - from Lisa Carrington's Olympic campaigns to Rugby World Cup campaigns with the Brave Blossoms (Japan Rugby) and the Chiefs. He doesn't work in the spotlight. He works in the shadows. And in this conversation, he goes deep.
For rural salespeople - people who know what it means to face pressure, rejection, and keep showing up when the conditions are against them - this episode is a masterclass in what actually separates the phenomenal from everyone else. It's not talent. It's not luck. According to David, it comes down to one word: maturity.
