In a culture that frequently worships at the altar of productivity, growth, 'self-improvement' and 'success', what if the contentment we are all looking for isn't somewhere out there – but is actually so close that we're overlooking it? In this fascinating book, host of a new way of being podcast and former BBC sports journalist Simon Mundie explores the stories of elite athletes – from Frankie Dettori and Jonny Wilkinson to Lucy Gossage and Kate Richardson-Walsh – who have reached the loftiest sporting heights. Through their journeys, Mundie unlocks eight essential lessons for finding fulfilment, peace and happiness, and questions the cultural myths that have developed around sport, life and success.
