What if winning gold isn’t about talent—but about trust?





In this episode, I sit down with Olympic high jump champion
Hamish Kerr—New Zealand’s first-ever gold medalist in the event.





We unpack what really sets elite performers apart: not just
relentless work ethic, but the mindset, habits, and team behind
them.





Hamish shares the unfiltered truth about what it takes to win on
the world stage—and how he almost walked away from it all.





We dive into:


The mental routine Hamish uses before every major competition

Why trust—not talent—is the real key to gold

How world-class athletes handle post-competition emptiness

The power of building the right team (even in an individual
sport)






If you’re serious about levelling up—in business, sport, or
life—this conversation will show you how to raise the bar.
Literally.
