Andy Walshe

Rebecca and Andy explore:

• How Red Bull’s human performance program redefined the boundaries of elite training

• The creation of Andy’s holistic Human Performance Model integrating physiology, creativity, spirituality, and character

• Why partnership, not prescription, is the key to unlocking potential

• How discomfort and uncertainty build resilience

• The role of curiosity and purpose in sustaining long-term growth

• The evolving relationship between humans and technology and what it really means to “make humans more human”

• The importance of community as the ultimate performance enhancer

Transformative insights

• The power of purpose: Every high performer shares one trait: a purpose greater than themselves.

• Curiosity as a practice: The best in any field stay in “beginner’s mind,” constantly challenging assumptions.

• Partnership over perfection: The most effective coaching is built on collaboration and curiosity, not control.

• Embracing the unknown: Performance breakthroughs often come when certainty is stripped away.

• The future of performance: Technology can enhance insight, but only human connection creates meaning.

Vulnerable moments

• Rebecca shares her identity crisis following her concussion and how she rediscovered herself through stillness and movement.

• Andy opens up about leaving Red Bull and navigating his own professional transition.

• They reflect on the power of community, purpose, and humility in times of change.

• Andy reveals why his favorite experiments at Red Bull weren't about numbers or metrics, but about what happens when the plan falls apart.

Practical wisdom

• True mastery is not about doing more; it’s about being more aware.

• The most valuable recovery tools are ancient: movement, time in nature, and intentional rest.

• Technology should free us to connect more deeply, not distract us from it.

• Building resilience starts with small, consistent practices that strengthen body, mind, and spirit.

• Create pauses in your day—the stillness is where insight lives.

Personal growth

• Rebecca’s “athlete operating system” reframes sport as a framework for life, a daily practice of curiosity, connection, and self-awareness.

• Andy’s mission through Liminal Collective is to democratize human performance, bringing world-class tools to everyday people.

• Both explore how to carry the lessons of high performance into the rest of life, from the mountains to the board room to the dinner table.
