Podcast #12: Tana Umaga - First All Black Captain of Pacific Island Heritage, has played over 300 games of first class rugby, coached in France and New Zealand and Co-Founder of Viktual+
The last episode of TUTT for 2021.
It's been a roller coaster last few months after stepping away from The Blues to focus on our new health and wellbeing supplements company, Viktual+, with my wife Rochelle.
I'm on the other side of the podcast this week and am being interviewed by Merl Manueli, who has been doing our social media. We chat about how life has been since I made my announcement that I was stepping away from rugby to the next day going into shock upon hearing that New Zealand was going into lockdown!
I talk about getting through lockdown and the struggles I went through as well as getting a better understanding of the business we are in. I figure out my transferable skills and how timing plays a big part in my belief system, and how some of my guests were able to give me confidence when I needed it.
We talk about my time in France and the differences I saw there to what I was used to in NZ and I share other stories of my rugby career and of some of the people I've met along the way.
I share my thoughts on how I handle pressure and tough moments and how I keep myself healthy both in body and mind.
I also answer some questions that have been sent in.
Listen in and let me know what you think.
Keep safe take care and have a very Merry Festive season.
