Joel Filliol (with his Scots Canadian accent) is the best. Genuine insight and inspiration born of long study and experience. Doesn’t get better.
I love the simplicity of Joe’s philosophy. No shortcuts, no complicated models. As a self coached athlete there is a risk of getting distracted by the 1%. This is the perfect antidote. An enjoyable listen👍
Unparalleled source of information for coaches and self coached athletes!
Joel (& Paulo) are at the top of their game and give great insight into the world of elite sport and coaching at the highest level. A must listen for any coaches out there!
Great podcast! But Bring Paulo back! ))
