Seeing sport grow in professionalism has brought so many benefits in the world of high-performance. However, this constant search for the next edge in high performance has led to more analysis, more box-ticking and more distractions than ever before.

The Inside Edge Podcast aims to explore how the best in the world navigate all the noise to consistently perform in the most rugged and high-pressure environments. The purpose? To bring back enjoyment, simplicity and connection. To help the next generation live from the inside-out, have the courage to be themselves and simply enjoy the journey.

Welcome back to the Inside Edge Podcast, this is the show that turns the journeys of some of the leading coaches, athletes, and leaders into actionable lessons you can implement into your own lives.

Our guest today is Tom Scollay - a former professional cricketer and founder of one of the leading coaching companies in the world in Cricket Mentoring. Tom is someone I've worked with for a few years and am incredibly inspired with how he has gone about building his life to revolve around doing what he loves and having such a large impact on others.

There are 2 parts to his story that can provide so much value:

 The first is based on his coaching philosophy - the difference between Tom and your regular coach is his focus on holistic coaching. We go deep into his pillars of performance: technical, tactical, mental, physical, emotional and lifestyle. In particular, Tom's focus on helping with the mental side of the game, and the lifestyle habits that accompany personal growth set him apart form most coaches out there. 

I found this conversation a great follow up to the episodes we've had with Viv Paver and Paddy Upton - a common theme in all of them is the focus on all parts of performance, rather than just the technical or tactical side. Many of the athletes that come across to us are sick of not performing when they are putting in the work physically, and I truly believe that this is the way forward for performance. Tom talks through great examples of athletes who are in high performance programs with access to some of the best cricket coaches and facilities in the world, yet still find so much benefit in having a mentor outside the system to lean on. 

The second part that is beneficial for all listeners is paying attention to how Tom has responded after not quite making it to the big time as a professional cricketer. Rather than being bitter about it, he is driven by the purpose of being the mentor he never had. He has taken what we call ultimate responsibility; working extremely hard to build the lifestyle that allows him to do what he is passionate about have big impact and still spend time with his wonderful young family. Many people see the success on the outside with Cricket Mentoring's huge online following, but not many realize the amount of work Tom and his team put in behind the scenes. That in combination with the courage to consistently put himself out there before anyone else had done so and cop the judgement of others in those early days in something truly inspiring. 

As always, feel free to get in touch if you'd like to know more about how to implement some of these themes into your own lives. I've loved reading some of the messages coming through and it certainly keeps me going to hear that so many of you are finding some benefit in what we are creating.

Welcome back to the Inside Edge Project with Bhavi Devchand, where we explore a counter-intuitive approach to performance based on connection, instinct, and enjoyment. Through deep conversations with those living in the Arena, we hope to help you, and the culture you are part of, shift your perspective, lead with purpose, and perform with freedom. 

Our guest today is one of the most well-known and charismatic figures in Australian sport with over 350 AFL games, multiple finals series, incredibly fit and diligent in preparation to do his job to the best of his ability. Most would think of someone like Gary Ablett or Dustin Martin, but we all forget about the umpires who have one of the toughest jobs in sport - and our guest today, Razor Ray Chamberlain certainly has experienced all the ups and downs that come with being in a high-pressure environment. 

 Behind the charisma that Ray has become famous for, is an incredible story of fighting against the persona created in the media to later own his story and find an incredible amount of freedom after that shift in perspective. We go deep into the "if-and-then model of happiness", how to deal with so much being completely out of your control and what it truly means to be successful. 

Perhaps most importantly, Ray has been deeply impacted by people close to him battling through struggles with mental health. Rather than this weighing him down, he has used the tougher periods to inspire the work he does with the EJ Whitten Foundation and his own Chamberlain foundation.  

 With lines like "winning sucks, no one cares and people don't buy into bullshit" I'm sure you'll enjoy a very entertaining, yet fascinating conversation.

"I kept searching for answers, and I found out too late that there are none"

Welcome to another bitesize episode of the Inside Edge podcast where we will be diving back into parts of our previous episodes to give you a quick hit of inspiration to help you grow through the week.

Today's clip is from our previous episode with Elyse Villani which can be found here www.insideedgeproject.com

Elyse discusses how she has got sucked into searching outside of herself for form when struggling, and how it took her a very long time to realize that there are no answers. It is about owning who you are on and off the field. Tune into the full episode to hear an entertaining conversation!

Meg discusses her preparation for games, including how being injured at the 2017 world cup completely changed her approach to batting. "You can either talk yourself into something or you can talk yourself out of something before you even start"

Welcome to another bitesize episode of the Inside Edge podcast where we will be diving back into parts of our previous episodes to give you a quick hit of inspiration to help you grow through the week. Today's clip is from our very first episode with a good friend and superstar of Australian cricket, Nicole Bolton. Bolts is a very spiritual person and like myself, has a deep connection to her craft. Through working with legendary coach Noddy holder, she has continued to develop this connection and now uses it to help dealing with the fears and worries that we all experience in everyday life. 

Bolts speaks openly about her significant battle with mental health in the full podcast so I'd highly recommend checking it out if you haven't already. Her journey reminds me of the saying, "the obstacle is the way" - rather than fighting everything that stops you, maybe working through it is the way to get where you want to go.

After seeing Sophie Devine score a massive 100 in a recent game of WBBL07 I initially wanted to play a clip where she talked about batting, her changes in technique, and how she has found a way to get through tough periods to make a big score. However, when watching her bat over the weekend, my favorite part was seeing her smile once reaching triple figures. It wasn't a massive celebration, but you could certainly see how content she was and it reminded me of how far she has come from having panic attacks and completely breaking down just at the thought of walking onto a cricket field. Rather than dive into her physical approach to the game, which is well worth listening to if you check out the full version of the podcast, I thought it would serve as a good reminder that if you are struggling, things can, and will get better. Be kind to yourself, lean on your support network, and know that you, like Sophie can turn things around to find joy again.

Episode 21 with Piepa Cleary - cricketer for the Perth Scorchers, Welsh Fire and Lancashire Thunder. 

Piepa made headlines last year as she decided to step away from a professional contract with the Western Australian Women's team in the WNCL as the constant grind of high-performance programs chipped away at her wellbeing and enjoyment of the process. Like many of the guests on the podcast, a change in environment and thought processes have led to a remarkable turnaround. Spending a summer in England helped her rediscover who she is, why she plays and what is important to her in life. In this episode we discuss:

• How to create cultures where you can work hard, but maintain the enjoyment of the game
• How Piepa has redefined success from external achievements to living in accordance with her values 
• Leveraging the dark side to thrive following significant setbacks, including being suspended from the game for 6 months
• Gratitude and connection being critical to wellbeing
• Her experiences in the Hundred, the WBBL and more!

Be sure to listen through to the end of the podcast where I give a fantastic tool to help you discover that freedom that Piepa talks about.

Welcome to the Inside Edge Podcast,  our guest today is Peter Clarke - sport psychologist from the Australian Cricket Team and head coach of the University of Queensland CC who are one of the most successful team in the Queensland Premier Competition.

 A lot of criticisms of sport psychologists is they don't understand what it is actually like to have the pressures of being out in the middle, and on the flip side, a lot of coaches don't understand how to help players who are struggling with the mental side of the game. This is something that makes Pete incredibly special. In this episode we discuss:

• The key elements that make up the UQCC successful culture
• The neurobiology of our fear response and how it explains performance anxiety, nervousness and getting into the zone
• The 90/10 principle on focus and acceptance
• How Pete focuses on building relationships when working with international cricketers and coaches
• Some practical tools to implement in your game or with your team straight away.

Welcome to the inside edge podcast with Bhavi Devchand. Our guest this week is Australian cricketer, Perth scorcher and proud Queenslander, Beth Mooney. Beth is one of the most sought after and dominant batters in world cricket, having hit #1 in the world following the Women's World cup in 2020 and topped batting charts for 3 years prior to that. Her story of getting there is a fascinating one, where she found herself leveraging her dark side in some grueling fitness regimes, that by her own admission crossed the line into an unhealthy obsession. Beth is someone who can hit thousands of balls and is still able to flick a switch to let go and trust the skills she has developed. This has not always been the case, but as she discusses, leading with deep humility and deep gratitude has helped her perform in huge games like the WT20 final in front of 87000 people. I'll go into these concepts and how they are relevant to performance at the end of the podcast, so be sure to hang around until the end.
