TBE 27 - Rocky Clark

Описание: Are you trying to sustain high performance over a long career — even when pressure never disappears?

In this episode of The Business End, we sit down with Rocky Clark — England’s most capped front-row forward, Rugby World Cup winner, and one of the most resilient athletes in the game — to unpack what longevity, leadership, and elite standards really look like behind the scenes.

This isn’t a conversation about medals.
It’s about drive, resilience, identity, and staying relevant when the system around you is still evolving.

In this episode, we cover:

✅ What it truly takes to sustain performance over a 15-year elite career
✅ How to stay driven when motivation fades and pressure never lets up
✅ Leadership without authority — and how standards quietly slip
✅ Handling setbacks, loss, and disappointment at the highest level
✅ Transitioning from elite sport to life, business, and purpose after retirement
✅ Imposter syndrome, confidence, and owning your space in male-dominated environments
✅ Lessons from World Cup failure that led to ultimate success
✅ What elite sport teaches us about business, culture, and performance

By the end of this episode, you’ll understand how elite performers think, how they adapt under pressure, and how these lessons apply directly to business, leadership, and personal growth.

👉 Watch until the end for Rocky’s powerful advice on success, resilience, and defining purpose beyond titles.
