Former England & Lions Rugby star and fellow OPUS member George Kruis joins us this week to discuss his incredible career and the journey into building his own company post-retirement.
George is being modest when he says he played rugby for 14 years, won some good trophies and got to travel the world…
He was part of one of the most successful Club stints in Rugby with Saracens, winning 4 Premiership titles and 3 European Cups.
He was also part of the 2017 Lions Tour and internal to Englands successful run to the Rugby World Cup Final in Tokyo in 2019.
We talk about George’s experience in that infamous World Cup Semi-Final victory over the All Blacks in Tokyo, and what went wrong in the final a week later.
We also discuss what it’s like to play with your adversaries for the British & Irish Lions, and going from the pinnacle of the sport to transitioning out into being an entrepreneur starting from scratch with his innovative supplement company Four Five Nutrition.
What was it like under the pressure cooker of playing in one of the biggest global sporting events, how can you deal with the disappointment of failure and what are some of the biggest challenges on the transition from Sports Star to company founder?
We find out right now. Enjoy

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
