Human Alchemy
Human Alchemy is a podcast focused on people who have trained themselves to go from ordinary to exceptional.
Alchemy is the mystical practice of turning lead into gold and we speak to people who have managed the human equivalent. While there is a focus on performance, the podcast focuses on the moment or phase of change where someone starts to become something else and dives into how it was achieved.
Every now and then there will be an episode focused purely on one topic which will be called a 'Ross Examination' (For those early listeners you'll be familiar with the name) where I'll try to focus in on the key performance drivers of said topic.
Enjoy!

EP4: Shaun Edwards - Coaching, Performance & Simplicity
I travelled down to Perpignan in the south of France to meet one of, if not the greatest defence coach of all time, Shaun Edwards.
What I enjoyed about Shaun's view of coaching is how simplicity is at the heart of everything. Shaun also cares deeply about his players, something most coaches will claim to do but fail to execute, Shaun didn't say it but his actions spell out the picture clearly, people play for Shaun.
Enjoy!
