How Is He Podcast | Ep. 99

Today, Podge & Popa's guest is someone who truly understands what it means to perform when it matters most. Kieran Lillis is a Peak Performance Mindset and Leadership Coach who works with business owners, teams, and ambitious individuals ready to raise their standards and operate at a higher level.

Through one-to-one coaching and the design and delivery of leadership programmes and workshops, he helps people develop emotional intelligence, strengthen communication, build resilience, and lead their teams more effectively.

He’s a qualified primary school teacher and former hospitality business owner, so he understands first-hand the pressure, responsibility, and demands that come with leadership. He’s also a former inter-county Gaelic footballer with the Laois senior team, where performing under pressure wasn’t optional, it was expected.

Academically, Kieran holds a Master’s in Professional Leadership and a Master’s in Performance Psychology, blending evidence-based tools with real-world insight to help people strengthen their mindset, elevate performance, and deliver consistently at a high level.

If you’re interested in leadership, resilience, mindset, or unlocking higher performance in business or sport, you’re going to get a lot from this conversation.
