High performance is many things too many people. For some, it's winning the coveted prizes. For others, it's being held in the highest esteem. Sometimes, it's about showing up, day after day, being courageous in the face of adversity. Today's High Performance Podcast guest is one half of an incredible team who have achieved all those definitions of high performance. It’s our privilege to welcome Lindsey Burrow as the latest guest in our series to celebrate the Rugby League World Cup.Lindsey's husband, Rob was a stand-out star of the sport, a titan in a world of giants. He was central to the all conquering Leeds Rhinos era of dominance. In 2019, he was diagnosed with the cruel illness of Motor Neurone Disease. It's a battle he chose to fight on his own terms.Facing this battle alongside him was Lindsey, his childhood sweetheart and mother to their three children. In this moving discussion, she shares how identifying a sense of purpose - to give hope and inspiration to others - has been important in maintaining their strength; she offers insights into the mental ability she has learned to be able to provide a stable, living home for their family and finally, she explains why Rob's 'no tears' policy has given them a resolve in the face of the most unimaginable pain.ALL SPONSORSHIP & SUBSCRIPTION INCOME FROM THIS EPISODE WILL BE DONATED TO MND ASSOCIATION.If you would like to donate to MND, please give whatever you can to help find a cure: https://www.mndassociation.org/get-involved/donations/ Hosted on Acast.

He describes the process of changing mindsets and shaping a winning culture from the perspective of leading a dressing room.
