#220 Lúcas Ó’Ceallacháin // Performance and Communication coach

On episode 220 I am delighted to be joined by performance Coach Lúcas Ó’Ceallacháin currently contracted to rugby, triathlon, ballet and a number of business leaders in the corporate sector under his registered company Locus of Control. Lucas is originally from Clare. He would go on to study Russian in Trinity College. A unique opportunity would arise to move to Kazakhstan and lead to a career in rugby coaching and playing in Kazakhstan. He has since relocated and moved to the Gold Coast in Australia where he has worked with Australian Triathalon, Australian Institute of sport, and the Australian synchronised swimming programme during the 2024 olympic cycle. We discuss his career, how studying Russian led to a trip with Trapattoni and the irish soccer team, communicating in conflict, meetings, checking in with your audience, torytelling in sport, and more. This was a fascinating conversation. Watch a documentary series on his time in Kazakhstan Part 1 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Dho3ZOOBegConnect with Lúcas here https://www.linkedin.com/in/lucasoceallachain/https://www.hintsa.com/company/our-people/lucas-oceallachain/ Follow The Sideline Live Social Media channels and the host Orla here: https://linktr.ee/TheSidelineLiveRecorded using Samson Q2 microphone, Edited using GarageBandIntro music, Watered Eyes by a talented Irish artist, Dillon Ward check him out ⁠⁠here⁠⁠ . If you are looking to set up your own podcast get in touch with the Prymal Productions team ⁠⁠⁠www.prymal.ie⁠⁠⁠
