In this episode of the Prime Effect Podcast, we are joined by retired Wallabies star Ben Mowen. Ben retired from playing professional Rugby Union in 2019, after an impressive career which saw him captain the Wallabies. His career took him across the world to France where he lived with his growing family whilst playing for 6 years. Upon retiring, he became coach of Easts Rugby Union Club in Brisbane, as well as coaching the XV Rugby Union team at Villanova college. Ben also coaches on topics like leadership and mateship to various corporate and community groups. We discuss topics such as ‘being coachable’, being consistent with your health & fitness for the mental health benefits, and dealing with change.
