Continuing the top tier guest list for Season 3 will be Formula 1 driver Liam Lawson, World Champion triathlete Kristian Blummenfelt, South Africa’s double World Cup winning rugby captain Siya Kolisi and Australia’s BMX medal contender Saya Sakakibara.
The season kicks off with a bang with RB Leipzig forward Xavi Simons and Dr Peter Schneider, a mental performance trainer with the Bundesliga club. The pair will talk about their close working relationship, the importance of getting the mental approach right in high-pressure environments like the Champions League, and even their many games of UNO.

Lisa herself is familiar with the world of sports and high performance, having played field hockey before switching to a career as a journalist and TV presenter. Lisa is particularly excited to introducing a new format that will provide even deeper insight into the mental tactics of her extraordinary guests.
“The true power of a resilient mindset is something that has always been interesting to me,” Lisa explains. “So I couldn't be more excited to go down this path with York and these incredible personalities and grow a little bit more together with the audience.
