Welcome back to the Inside Edge Podcast, this is the show that turns the journeys of some of the leading coaches, athletes, and leaders into actionable lessons you can implement into your own lives.
Our guest today is Tom Scollay - a former professional cricketer and founder of one of the leading coaching companies in the world in Cricket Mentoring. Tom is someone I've worked with for a few years and am incredibly inspired with how he has gone about building his life to revolve around doing what he loves and having such a large impact on others.
There are 2 parts to his story that can provide so much value:
The first is based on his coaching philosophy - the difference between Tom and your regular coach is his focus on holistic coaching. We go deep into his pillars of performance: technical, tactical, mental, physical, emotional and lifestyle. In particular, Tom's focus on helping with the mental side of the game, and the lifestyle habits that accompany personal growth set him apart form most coaches out there.
I found this conversation a great follow up to the episodes we've had with Viv Paver and Paddy Upton - a common theme in all of them is the focus on all parts of performance, rather than just the technical or tactical side. Many of the athletes that come across to us are sick of not performing when they are putting in the work physically, and I truly believe that this is the way forward for performance. Tom talks through great examples of athletes who are in high performance programs with access to some of the best cricket coaches and facilities in the world, yet still find so much benefit in having a mentor outside the system to lean on.
The second part that is beneficial for all listeners is paying attention to how Tom has responded after not quite making it to the big time as a professional cricketer. Rather than being bitter about it, he is driven by the purpose of being the mentor he never had. He has taken what we call ultimate responsibility; working extremely hard to build the lifestyle that allows him to do what he is passionate about have big impact and still spend time with his wonderful young family. Many people see the success on the outside with Cricket Mentoring's huge online following, but not many realize the amount of work Tom and his team put in behind the scenes. That in combination with the courage to consistently put himself out there before anyone else had done so and cop the judgement of others in those early days in something truly inspiring.
As always, feel free to get in touch if you'd like to know more about how to implement some of these themes into your own lives. I've loved reading some of the messages coming through and it certainly keeps me going to hear that so many of you are finding some benefit in what we are creating.

Welcome back to the Inside Edge Podcast, this is the show that turns the journeys of some of the leading coaches, athletes, and leaders into actionable lessons you can implement into your own lives.
Today we welcome back Coach Viv Paver onto the podcast. If you haven’t listened to viv;s previous podcast with us, I highly recommend going back to episode 2 where we had an incredible discussion about his journey as a cricketer and a coach, as well as the philosophies that make him different from so many. Calling Viv my batting coach doesn’t quite do his skill set justice, not only is he outrageously good at understanding the mechanics of batting, he has an incredible ability to understand the mechanics of performance, which includes so much more.
We start the discussion with the most common question we both receive as coaches: Why can't I transfer how I'm playing in the nets, or at training to a game? Or alternatively, why don't I perform to the same standard when I'm playing at a higher level of cricket?
Viv explains things very simply in terms of the equation: performance = potential - interference. We have to do the work to keep increasing our potential to execute in any given moment. Most athletes and coaches work with increasing their potential through physical training - hitting balls, getting in the gym, running, and even having a mental routine to train their focus. To then realize this potential, we have to decrease what gets in the way - known as interference. The more variables, or noise you allow in, the less your performance is on the other side.
Both Viv and myself deeply believe in a holistic approach to performance, and this includes helping each student to understand what variables they need to work through. There are the obvious ones that include conditions, a type of bowler and the game situation, but it you dive deeper - most interference stems from emotional variables.
These emotional variables are mostly stemmed around our perspective - what is our relationship with the game? Do we place our entire self worth on outcomes achieved, on looking good to others, or do we value ourselves on growing, serving and connecting? Do we become perfectionists as a result of living in fear of future outcomes? Or are we able to embrace imperfection and have excitement for the unknown? Curiosity for what might happen if we have the courage to be all we can be now. For me, this is the key, it's the courage to work as hard as you can, and then be completely present in the moment, even though that might not get you to where you wan to go.
What has been amazing to see as I've embarked on deeper levels of coaching, is that this approach tends to get people to not just where they want to be, but they often exceed their expectations and go well beyond what they initially thought was possible.
Viv and I ended up having an incredible discussion as he asked me some excellent questions around my values, my personal philosophies and the background story behind them. He is a master of bringing philosophy into performance, which is critical part of maximising potential.
As always, if you know you have more in you and are struggling to get the best out of yourself when it matters, feel free to get in touch with either myself or Viv. I hope you enjoy this conversation.

Welcome back to the Inside Edge Podcast with Bhavi Devchand, this is the show that turns the journeys of some of leading coaches, athletes and leaders into actionable lessons you can implement into your own lives.
Now for our guest today featuring one of the all-time greats - Suzie Bates.
A staggering 288 caps for New Zealand, over 8000 international runs to go alongside 125 international wickets. She is a highly sought after cricketer on the domestic T20 scene, and all of this doesn't even include being an Olympian in Basketball!
Suzie and I first met when she came over to play for WA under well known coach, Steve Jenkin. She immediately struck me as self-assured, confident and very successful. As with most of the stories we've had on the show, we soon find out this was not the case at all. Suzie had many struggles with self-doubt, body image, performance anxiety and fear of others opinions.
She has since been on a remarkable journey where she now talks openly about the importance of owning who you are and then having the courage to display that version of yourself to those around you, especially when you're not feeling great. So many of us want to withdraw when struggling as it can be a lot easier. However, as Suzie mentions, the depth of connection that we all crave is done through being brave and opening up to the people close to us.
We are all craving the need to belong and connect, however there is a specific type of connection termed "high-quality connection" by psychologist Dr. Scott Barry Kaufmann. The difference between the general feeling of connection and the depth of high quality connection comes down to the ability to let yourself be seen at the most authentic level, and then having someone else respond empathetically to make you feel safe and worthy despite your imperfections.
One of the great distractions occurs when we think we can get to this depth of connection through external achievements, looking good to others and being superior to them. However these are all temporary states that are ultimately out of our control. Getting sucked into this world of chasing the next goal post, only results in an unhealthy cycle that keeps our stress response chronically activated.
Something special happens within each of us when we are vulnerable and experience moments of high quality connection: Our stress response is downregulated as our calm and connect system comes alive. On a biological level, we see an increase in oxytocin, which is a neurotransmitter commonly known as the love hormone, that increases our willingness to trust and cooperate with others. The strength of our vagus nerve increases, resulting in an increased ability to adapt to stress phsycially and mentally. This parasympathetic response also soothes a racing heart and opens up more activity in our frontal cortex allowing us to make rational decisions under pressure.
From a leadership point of view - this is the science behind unlocking performance by allowing each individual to be themselves. It is a hot topic at the moment, empathy and a human-first approach. And for good reason. You can have the perfect structure and tick all the boxes physically, However, if you want to unlock true performance, you have to start with connection.
The only way to get to this level of connection is by shedding the masks we wear. They are usually there to protect us from rejection, however the irony is that they serve as a barrier to the depth of connection. The first step of removing the masks is to embrace our imperfections. And Suzie's story is a wonderful example of how she has done this to find contentment and plenty of runs on the other side of it.

Welcome back to the Inside Edge Podcast, this is the show that turns the journeys of some of leading coaches, athletes and leaders into actionable lessons you can implement into your own lives. I'm so excited for this episode - with one the best people I've ever met, Mignon Du Preez.
Minnie is one of the most loved people in the Elite cricket world, and it's not just for her cricket. I have no doubt that one of the main reasons she is one of the most sought-after players in domestic tournaments like the WBBL and the Hundred, is what she brings off field as well.
I was lucky enough to spend some time with her at the Melbourne Stars and it was incredible to watch her batting and fielding, especially as I was someone who thought I was too small to be successful in t20 cricket. However, What I loved the most was seeing her beaming smile every day, no matter what was going on for her personally, she lit up a room with her presence and positive energy.
It was easy to sit back and assume that life was easy for her, she was one of the best players in the world, incredibly skillful, a full-time pro, and loved by those around her. However when you hear her story, and the many demons she has had to deal with, it begs the question, how does she continue to bring this positivity despite all that she has been through?
She has been through long dips in form, been dropped when she was meant to be a senior player having played over 100 games for South Africa, she stepped down from captaincy, suffered from over-training, and ultimately lost herself completely in worrying about her results or trying to please others.
After reflecting on our conversation, I understood that Mignon's ability to bring positive energy had nothing to do with her accomplishments on the field, but more to do with the perspective and humility she has gained by going through these experiences. She is the very example of post-traumatic growth, constantly reinventing herself after tough times to be better on the other side. This is combined with a wonderful attachment to a higher power, something that is so, so important in the ability to let go and trust that things will be ok. It is something that is very common in those that are the best in their field.
In Mignon's case, she is a devout Christian, however, we discuss how it does not need to be a specific religion that helps this ability to let go and flow. It is more to do with accepting your place in the world, and that there is so much more out there. It is a sense of deep humility, combined with the determination to continue to grow.
As always, feel free to get in touch if you'd like to know more about how to implement some of these themes into your own lives. For those that really want to go into the weeds, we will be running some workshops to help you shift your perspective and perform with freedom.

Welcome to the Inside Edge Podcast with Bhavi Devchand, this is the show that turns the journeys of some of the leading coaches, athletes and leaders into actionable lessons you can implement into your own lives.
Our guest today is Jo Broadbent. Jo averaged a staggering 109 in tests, took 38 ODI wickets and was a World Cup winner in 1997. Like our recent guest Charlotte Edwards, Jo made an incredibly successful transition to the coaching world, leading NSW to over 10 WNCL titles, and was awarded an Order of Australia Medal in 2018 for her services to cricket.
She gives incredible insights into managing a wide variety of teams, from the superstars at NSW to ICC developing nations and now in her role as head coach of Northern Districts in New Zealand. A common theme in Jo's philosophies is connection. Connection with each individual player - understanding what makes them tick and allowing them to embrace their quirks and individuality. At the same time, it is about connecting to a common purpose, taking a group of varied individuals and getting them to work towards a common goal.
In essence, she creates environments where people can belong, rather than have the need to fit in. There is a big difference. Belonging is where you can be your most authentic, natural self and now that despite your imperfections, the people around you still accept you. Fitting in occurs when you think you need to change who you are, in order to be accepted by those around you.
By creating a psychologically safe environment, we can clear some of this noise, creating space to be in the moment and focus on the task at hand. All of this is easier said than done, however, Jo has done a great job of articulating some methods you can use to move towards a culture based on connection.
Feel free to get in touch if you'd like to know more about how you can leverage the power of connection in your own life. The amazing part is that you don't have to be a professional athlete or coach at the elite level to apply some of the tools and techniques discussed, you just need to be open and willing to go into the weeds, do the work and know that you'll be ok on the other side.

Welcome back to the Inside Edge Podcast with Bhavi Devchand, this is the show that turns the journeys of some of leading coaches, athletes and leaders into actionable lessons you can implement into your own lives.
Our guest today is the incredible cricketer and artists Corinne Hall. Corinne has been a mainstay of the domestic competition in Australia for over 10 yrs, captaining Tasmania and the Hobart Hurricanes, before moving across to her hometown team the Sydney Thunder. What makes Corinne different to most is her incredible talent as an artist as displayed in her book Victress: which is an amazing read about women who have paved the way in Australian sport.The book is an ode to some of Australia’s most cherished female athletes who, not just through achievements in their chosen sport, but through their unwavering conviction and commitment to women’s sport, blazed a trail for their sisterhood.
From legends like Dawn Fraser and Cathy Freeman, to the new breed of powerful sportswomen like Ellyse Perry, Tayla Harris and Ash Barty, each athlete is honoured and celebrated, thanks to Corinne's unique artistic talents.
In this podcast, we dissect the cross-overs between performance, perfectionism, and perspective in both art and cricket. Corinne also speaks a lot about kindness and how it has been so integral to the resilience of herself and those around her.

Welcome back to the Inside Edge Project with Bhavi Devchand, where explore a counter-intuitive approach to performance based on connection, instinct and enjoyment. Through deep conversations with those living in the Arena, we hope to help you, and the culture you are part of shift your perspective and perform with freedom.
Our guest this week is the legendary coach of UWA CC, Will Stibbs. We start this podcast with the usual topics; coaching, leadership & holistic performance. However, after I asked a simple question of how to develop empathy, we take a deep dive into Stibbsy's story, which is one of the most incredible examples of looking pain and grief directly in the eye and coming out on the other side. with incredible skills to impact other people. Check out this series of events:
A knee injury that was meant to recover within a few weeks, turning into 5 different operations, a golden staph infection and coming very close to losing his leg. Within that period he lost 32kg to be 50 kg at the age of 21 and a subsequently had 2.5 years out of the game to the point where his leg was stuck straight for a year - to change this he decided to manually snap all the calcification himself rather than going under general anesthetic for the 6th time in a yearGetting caught up in political troubles in the west indies, contracting Hep A, leading to his first bout of chronic fatigue. Soon after, Stibbsy's best mate gets diagnosed with brain cancer, undergoes multiple craniotomies and subsequent chemotherapy. Stibbsy does all his rehab with him. The battles with grief settled in from there. Glandular fever hits and he enters a 2nd and much more severe bout of chronic fatigue. This lead to not being able to get out of bed for weeks on end, having a darkness come over him and not knowing if he would ever recover.What he has been through so far is absolutely mind-blowing, and perhaps the best part is seeing where he is now, using his experiences to lead with pure empathy for others. The holistic culture he has helped develop at UWA has significantly impacted many men and women to be the very best version of themselves on and off the field. If you're wondering how our previous guests on the podcast, Viv Paver and Corey Rocchicioli, have developed their incredible philosophies on performance, you don't have to stray too far from the philosophies Will talks about on this podcast.
This is a story of hope, resilience and following the fire within. I hope you enjoy.

Seeing sport grow in professionalism has brought so many benefits in the world of high-performance. However, this constant search for the next edge in high performance has led to more analysis, more box-ticking and more distractions than ever before.
The Inside Edge Podcast aims to explore how the best in the world navigate all the noise to consistently perform in the most rugged and high-pressure environments. The purpose? To bring back enjoyment, simplicity and connection. To help the next generation live from the inside-out, have the courage to be themselves and simply enjoy the journey. -
Welcome back to the Inside Edge Project with Bhavi Devchand, where we explore a counter-intuitive approach to performance based on connection, instinct, and enjoyment. Through deep conversations with those living in the Arena, we hope to help you, and the culture you are part of, shift your perspective, lead with purpose, and perform with freedom.
Our guest today is one of the most well-known and charismatic figures in Australian sport with over 350 AFL games, multiple finals series, incredibly fit and diligent in preparation to do his job to the best of his ability. Most would think of someone like Gary Ablett or Dustin Martin, but we all forget about the umpires who have one of the toughest jobs in sport - and our guest today, Razor Ray Chamberlain certainly has experienced all the ups and downs that come with being in a high-pressure environment.
Behind the charisma that Ray has become famous for, is an incredible story of fighting against the persona created in the media to later own his story and find an incredible amount of freedom after that shift in perspective. We go deep into the "if-and-then model of happiness", how to deal with so much being completely out of your control and what it truly means to be successful.
Perhaps most importantly, Ray has been deeply impacted by people close to him battling through struggles with mental health. Rather than this weighing him down, he has used the tougher periods to inspire the work he does with the EJ Whitten Foundation and his own Chamberlain foundation.
With lines like "winning sucks, no one cares and people don't buy into bullshit" I'm sure you'll enjoy a very entertaining, yet fascinating conversation.

Welcome to another bitesize episode of the Inside Edge podcast where we will be diving back into parts of our previous episodes to give you a quick hit of inspiration to help you grow through the week. Today's clip is from our very first episode with a good friend and superstar of Australian cricket, Nicole Bolton. Bolts is a very spiritual person and like myself, has a deep connection to her craft. Through working with legendary coach Noddy holder, she has continued to develop this connection and now uses it to help dealing with the fears and worries that we all experience in everyday life.
Bolts speaks openly about her significant battle with mental health in the full podcast so I'd highly recommend checking it out if you haven't already. Her journey reminds me of the saying, "the obstacle is the way" - rather than fighting everything that stops you, maybe working through it is the way to get where you want to go.

After seeing Sophie Devine score a massive 100 in a recent game of WBBL07 I initially wanted to play a clip where she talked about batting, her changes in technique, and how she has found a way to get through tough periods to make a big score. However, when watching her bat over the weekend, my favorite part was seeing her smile once reaching triple figures. It wasn't a massive celebration, but you could certainly see how content she was and it reminded me of how far she has come from having panic attacks and completely breaking down just at the thought of walking onto a cricket field. Rather than dive into her physical approach to the game, which is well worth listening to if you check out the full version of the podcast, I thought it would serve as a good reminder that if you are struggling, things can, and will get better. Be kind to yourself, lean on your support network, and know that you, like Sophie can turn things around to find joy again.

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:

Welcome to the Inside Edge Podcast, our guest today is Peter Clarke - sport psychologist from the Australian Cricket Team and head coach of the University of Queensland CC who are one of the most successful team in the Queensland Premier Competition.
A lot of criticisms of sport psychologists is they don't understand what it is actually like to have the pressures of being out in the middle, and on the flip side, a lot of coaches don't understand how to help players who are struggling with the mental side of the game. This is something that makes Pete incredibly special. In this episode we discuss:
The key elements that make up the UQCC successful cultureThe neurobiology of our fear response and how it explains performance anxiety, nervousness and getting into the zoneThe 90/10 principle on focus and acceptanceHow Pete focuses on building relationships when working with international cricketers and coachesSome practical tools to implement in your game or with your team straight away.For more content:

Welcome to the inside edge podcast with Bhavi Devchand. Our guest this week is Australian cricketer, Perth scorcher and proud Queenslander, Beth Mooney. Beth is one of the most sought after and dominant batters in world cricket, having hit #1 in the world following the Women's World cup in 2020 and topped batting charts for 3 years prior to that. Her story of getting there is a fascinating one, where she found herself leveraging her dark side in some grueling fitness regimes, that by her own admission crossed the line into an unhealthy obsession. Beth is someone who can hit thousands of balls and is still able to flick a switch to let go and trust the skills she has developed. This has not always been the case, but as she discusses, leading with deep humility and deep gratitude has helped her perform in huge games like the WT20 final in front of 87000 people. I'll go into these concepts and how they are relevant to performance at the end of the podcast, so be sure to hang around until the end.

This week's episode is with Steve Dent, coach and expert in all things leadership and culture. Steve was my coach at Gloucestershire back in 2016 and he completely shifted the way I thought about performance. I remember completely nerding out on one of the books he gave me called Ahead of the Game by Jeremy Lazarus. Little did I know that some of these concepts really were ahead of where the game was.
Steve has spent over 25 years working in leadership and development and his insights into how to create psychological safety through a shared purpose are incredible. I'd recommend grabbing a pen and paper for this one as there are so many actionable tools to implement into your culture straight away.

Season 3 kicks off with the captain of the Australian Cricket team and one of the best batters of all time, Meg Lanning. 5 world cups, 3 Belinda Clark medals, 3 domestic titles & 16 international hundreds and so many more achievements. She is clearly very talented, however, in this podcast we dive deep into how she has sustained such a high level of performance over a long period - without losing a sense of who she is. Empathy, Instinct, Trust & Growth are common topics both on and off the field, all crucial when living from the inside out. For Meg, It's not about over-training, living up to the expectations of others, or even trying to be the best in the world. It's about trust, channeling her natural drive to discipline, and winning the game for the team, knowing that it's the process of going after a goal that brings that deep satisfaction. If you do get something out of this podcast, I'd love it if you can pass it on and keep the conversation going. Thanks for tuning in, I hope you enjoy it.

Our guest this week is Corey Rocchiccioli, contracted cricketer with WA, the Perth scorchers and University CC. Although not a household name yet, he has an unbelievable journey that includes going from 3rd grade to state cricket in 5 years. Corey is one of the most incredible young men I've ever met. He is only 23, works harder than anyone I have seen, yet does it from a place of authenticity. Most people who work at that level do so from a place of fear, of some need that they have to excel or they will be a failure. Corey is special, in that he genuinely loves the journey and leads from the inside out. He has developed a framework to live his life around 4 pillars and a range of values beneath them. These have come from adversity as well as drinking deeply from good books listening to podcasts and surrounding himself with good people. Most importantly he attributes his incredible growth to the courage to be himself, to be present to each moment, and bring that best self to the task at hand. Easy to say, not always easy to do, but Corey goes a long way to living this way and the external results are there to show for it. I hope you enjoy it.
