Reflections on finding balance, navigating change and creating Sporting Edge

Author: Jeremy Snape April 14, 2023 Duration: 36:45

This episode flips the script where I share my interview on the Big Balance Theory podcast with Sarah Cripps. It provides a glimpse into my backstory as a former England cricketer and studying for a master's degree in sports psychology. We also explore the importance of setting goals, being disruptive, embracing diversity, learning from failures, and managing your energy and wellbeing.

What does it actually take to perform at the very highest level? That’s the question driving Inside the Mind of Champions, hosted by former England cricketer Jeremy Snape. For a decade, Jeremy has been on a global quest to decode the psychology of success, moving far beyond the cricket pitch. His conversations aren’t just with legendary athletes and coaches; he sits down with neuroscientists, special forces operatives, top-tier business leaders, and performing artists to find the common threads in their mental frameworks. Each episode of this podcast feels like a privileged access pass, where you’ll hear firsthand accounts of pressure, resilience, and the subtle thought patterns that separate the good from the truly great. You won’t just get inspirational stories-you’ll get tangible insights into decision-making, leadership under stress, and cultivating a mindset that thrives on challenge. Whether you’re an entrepreneur facing a critical pitch, a manager building a team, or simply curious about the inner workings of excellence, this series translates the principles of championship thinking into something you can apply. Jeremy’s unique background as both an international sportsman and a performance consultant allows him to ask the nuanced questions that reveal how these exceptional individuals consistently win, create, and lead. Tune in for a deep, practical exploration of what happens behind the scenes of remarkable achievement.
