E035: High-Pressure World Cup Finals to Startup Success with Former England Rugby Star George Kruis

Performance Hackers with Scott Radford

Former England & Lions Rugby star and fellow OPUS member George Kruis joins us this week to discuss his incredible career and the journey into building his own company post-retirement.

George is being modest when he says he played rugby for 14 years, won some good trophies and got to travel the world…

He was part of one of the most successful Club stints in Rugby with Saracens, winning 4 Premiership titles and 3 European Cups.

He was also part of the 2017 Lions Tour and internal to Englands successful run to the Rugby World Cup Final in Tokyo in 2019.

We talk about George’s experience in that infamous World Cup Semi-Final victory over the All Blacks in Tokyo, and what went wrong in the final a week later.

We also discuss what it’s like to play with your adversaries for the British & Irish Lions, and going from the pinnacle of the sport to transitioning out into being an entrepreneur starting from scratch with his innovative supplement company Four Five Nutrition.

What was it like under the pressure cooker of playing in one of the biggest global sporting events, how can you deal with the disappointment of failure and what are some of the biggest challenges on the transition from Sports Star to company founder?

We find out right now. Enjoy
