BONUS EPISODE: The Formula for Success with Clare Sadler | Episode 39
from The Bouncebackability Podcast · host Rusty Earnshaw and Simon Ursell
In this bonus episode, Simon is joined once again by Clare Sadler to take a deeper dive into one of the core ideas behind human performance: Performance = Access to Capability. Clare unpacks why success isn't determined by mindset, motivation, or even how much training we've done, but by our ability to access the skills and capabilities we already possess when it matters most.Using examples from elite sport, including Formula 1 and football, Clare explains how pressure, uncertainty, and cognitive load can restrict access to our capabilities. The conversation explores why creating certainty through routines, environments, and clear signals allows people to perform more consistently under pressure. Practical, thought-provoking, and immediately applicable, this episode offers a fresh perspective on what really drives success—and why reducing load, rather than increasing effort, may be the key to unlocking hidden potential.In this BONUS episode:Clare's formula for success: why performance equals access to capabilityThe "pipeline" analogy and how pressure can restrict access to our skillsWhy certainty, not confidence or motivation, is the foundation of performanceLessons from Formula 1 and elite football on routines and consistency under pressureHow reducing load can unlock hidden capacity and improve performanceListen now to Clares full interview with Simon and Rusty – Performance Under Load with Clare Sadler | Episode 38 Find out more about Clare and her work here:LinkedInBeyond InstinctPlease like, subscribe or follow, so you're notified of any new episodes coming up, and if you're keen to reach Rusty or Simon with any suggestions, feedback or comments, you can contact them via the show's LinkedIn page here: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-bouncebackability-podcast/
