#087 - Jack Nowell - From Penzance To World Rugby (The Power Of Positivity)
Take FLIGHT - A podcast by Mark Whittle
Categories:
Jack Nowell is a professional rugby player for Exeter Chiefs, England & The British Lions. Mostly as a winger and occasionally a full back or centre - Jack has featured 122 times for Exeter since singing in 2012, getting over the line 33 times! That’s a try nearly every 90minutes of club rugby. An incredible achievement! In 2014, he was called up to the England first team and hasn’t looked back since. Clocking up 42 appearances and 14 tries maintaining his incredible try scoring consistently at club, but for country. In 2017 Jack was called up to what most consider the biggest honor of any pro rugby players career, when he went to Japan as part of the British and Irish lions squad. Scoring twice in his stand out appearance against the chiefs. He’s such an exciting rugby player and clearly the ultimate example of a peak performer. He’s a man after my own heart - covered in tattoos and some questionable haircuts - and is the ultimate example of someone who is completely comfortable being themselves and the exact type of person I wanted to have on the podcast from day one. I love people who don’t care what other people think and are just so happy being themselves. Jack is such a positive person too - I remember I left this conversation with so much energy and that’s thanks to his mindset and the way he articulates himself. It was just such a pleasure to have him on the podcast and I hope you feel the boost in energy I felt after hearing his story. https://www.instagram.com/jacknowell/?hl=en This episode is brought to you by The Turmeric Co.
