Episode #5: Bruno Alves — Discipline, Focus, and Daily Excellence

Welcome to Episode #5 of Season 3 of High Performance with Joe Sprange.

Today, my conversation is with Bruno Alves, a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt and multiple-time world champion. It’s an inspiring look into his incredible journey - from arriving in Australia in 2011 with very little, to now leading an impressive network of 27 Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu academies.

We go right back to the foundations of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu:
discipline, humility, and a relentless dedication to the craft.

For Bruno, high performance is simple and demanding:
performing above the average, not once, but consistently.

His keys are:

· keep learning

· stay focused on your goals

· have self-discipline

The quote that stayed with me:

“Get comfortable with the uncomfortable.”

In this episode, we explore the mindset required to push beyond your limits, how to stay anchored to long-term goals, and why self-discipline is the engine behind every breakthrough.

Welcome to Episode #3 of Season 3 of High Performance with Joe Sprange.

Today, my conversation is with Nick Farr-Jones, former Wallabies captain and Rugby World Cup winner. Nick has always been someone I’ve admired for his leadership, humility and composure under pressure.

In our chat, he reflects on the lessons that shaped him, from being left out of the 1st XV at Newington College to lifting the Rugby World Cup with Australia in 1991. His story is a powerful reminder that high performance isn’t a destination, it’s a mindset.

For Nick, the keys are simple but uncompromising:

• Mindset - How good can I be? Never being satisfied
• Discipline - You’re either in it or you’re not
• Consistant Effort - Physical and mental

In this episode, we explore:
• What leadership under pressure really looks like
• How to build trust and connection in a team
• Why the best are never satisfied
• The habits that keep champions grounded

One moment that stuck with me was when I asked Nick what surprised him most about high performance.He said: “How few people achieve it. I know so many great sportspeople who never got close to reaching their potential - 99% of people miss out.”

Nick’s perspective is shaped by both triumph and reflection. After winning Australia’s first Rugby World Cup in 1991, he and the team didn’t settle. They went on to beat the All Blacks and Springboks in 1992.

This episode is a masterclass in leadership and legacy.

Next up: Cross-country skiing has always held a special place in my heart. I was a successful junior racer growing up, a kid who dreamed of the Olympics, so the next conversation feels personal. I sit down with Seve de Campo, one of Australia’s top cross-country skiers, to talk about resilience, identity and what it takes to keep pushing forward when no one’s watching.

Today, my conversation is with Owain Matthews, a world champion age-group triathlete. He’s a husband, a dad, and a coach and he brings a deeply thoughtful approach to performance, both in sport and in life.

Owain believes high performance is about delivering abovean expected outcome.

A former teacher, he places the process before the outcome, focusing on self-awareness, reflection, and a willingness to learn as the foundations for success.

In this episode, we explore:

Why reflection is the key to sustainable improvement
How Owain balances ambition with family life
The power of listening and asking questions
Why failure is a step in the learning process

One quote that really stuck with me was when Owain said:

“In both my professional and sporting life, my ‘aha’ moment came when I started to improve a lot of different things, when I learned to ask more questions instead of telling everyone what to do.”

Owain’s clarity and humility make this a powerful conversation for anyone striving for clear outcomes whether in sport, business, or everyday life.

I hope you enjoy our conversation let me know what you liked most in the comments.

Amy's mission was inspired by her father’s story and it is "to ensure access to opportunity for all, so every person can contribute to a better future for Australia”.

Amy began her career as a lawyer before moving to the NSW public service to fulfill her mission. Over a decade, she took on various roles and played a crucial part in navigating NSW through the COVID pandemic. Leading the Department of Enterprise, Investment and Trade, Amy learned that leadership can be lonely, especially after a challenging turn of events.

Despite intense media scrutiny in 2022, Amy remained professional, courageous, and composed. Now, she’s taken on an exciting new role as COO of Christian Education Ministries, overseeing 14 thriving schools, 3 dynamic childcare centers, and a distance education program across five states.

In our conversation, Amy shares how she makes career decisions based on:

Values: Knowing who you are, what you stand for, and what you want to achieve to make crucial decisions.

Courage: Having the inner strength to step out of your comfort zone, take risks, and learn.

Empathy: Understanding our imperfections to better see things from others' perspectives.
