High Performance
About this episode

Today we welcome musician Tom Grennan to The High Performance Podcast. I’m sure you immediately start to think of some of the awesome songs that Tom’s released, but there is so much about his story, his mindset and resilience that you don’t know. You’re about to hear a conversation with Tom, like you’ve never heard him before.


He’s going to share with you the hours of therapy he’s had, which has helped him when approaching any challenge in life to flip his thoughts. He can transform typically negative emotions, like envy or doubt, into positives. The most notable example of this is when he was the victim of a random attack. He could have been really badly derailed by it, but through a lot of work he was able to completely change his mindset.


Tom has had some really tough moments, but he has come through them. I can’t tell you what a pleasure it was to sit down with someone as humble, determined, talented and deep-thinking as Tom Grennan.
