from Keegan and Company · host Keegan Hipgrave

Join Keegan as he sits down with NRL superstar and Newcastle Knights captain Kalyn Ponga for a raw conversation about authentic leadership, navigating high-pressure expectations, and the power of emotional resilience. Kalyn opens up about the self-doubt he felt when stepping into leadership, the trap of trying to "act" the part, and how he learned to process anger and disappointment before turning his focus back to the team. He shares the line he lives by and why staying true to your own strengths, and your own feelings, matters more than meeting anyone else's expectations. Listen in and discover your own line to live by.If you enjoyed this episode check out these similar episodes: #82 Nathan Cleary: Daily Disciplines, FOPO & Dealing With Pressure#34 Harry Grant: Melbourne Storm Captaincy, Almost DyingFollow Kalyn: InstagramSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
