Piepa Cleary | Finding freedom and redefining success

Episode 21 with Piepa Cleary - cricketer for the Perth Scorchers, Welsh Fire and Lancashire Thunder. 

Piepa made headlines last year as she decided to step away from a professional contract with the Western Australian Women's team in the WNCL as the constant grind of high-performance programs chipped away at her wellbeing and enjoyment of the process. Like many of the guests on the podcast, a change in environment and thought processes have led to a remarkable turnaround. Spending a summer in England helped her rediscover who she is, why she plays and what is important to her in life. In this episode we discuss:

• How to create cultures where you can work hard, but maintain the enjoyment of the game
• How Piepa has redefined success from external achievements to living in accordance with her values 
• Leveraging the dark side to thrive following significant setbacks, including being suspended from the game for 6 months
• Gratitude and connection being critical to wellbeing
• Her experiences in the Hundred, the WBBL and more!

Be sure to listen through to the end of the podcast where I give a fantastic tool to help you discover that freedom that Piepa talks about.
