High Performance
About this episode

One of High Performance’s biggest missions is to help transform the mindsets of young people. That’s why we created the High Performance Foundation, to give students the resilience and soft skills they need to thrive in the future.  


In this episode, Jake and Damian sit down with Sam Stoffel, entrepreneur and CEO of Outplayed, to discuss why he’s supporting the Foundation and his incredible journey from university student to leading a multi-million-pound business. Sam also shares the valuable lessons he's learned while building his own company, offering insights on the importance of relentless determination, trusting your instincts, avoiding complacency, and balancing work with self-care. 


Listen in to gain actionable insights that can elevate your own journey and help you adopt a high performance mindset. To learn more about the High Performance Foundation, click the link here: https://www.highperformancefoundation.org/
