🎙️ NEW PODCAST DROP – EPISODE 433 - Building the Master's Degree We All Wish Existed

What if the future of human performance education wasn’t found in lecture halls or outdated syllabi—but in a coffee shop in the UK?

That’s where this week’s Leave Your Mark episode begins.

Six years ago, Richard Clarke sat down with the CEO of ALTIS World and floated a radical idea: What if we created a Master’s program that actually reflected the real world of human performance?

Fast-forward to today, and that conversation has evolved into one of the most innovative educational offerings in our industry—the ALTIS Master’s in Strength, Conditioning, and Coaching Practice.

In this special episode, I sit down with Richard Clarke and my good friend Stu McMillan to unpack the journey behind the program—what sparked it, what shaped it, and what it could mean for you.

🚀 Inside the episode:

Why traditional education doesn’t cut it anymore

How real-world mentors and hands-on experiences beat textbooks and theory

The role of Phoenix, London, and a global cohort of hungry coaches

And the deeply personal “why” that drives this movement forward

🎓 This isn’t just an academic conversation—it’s a blueprint for the next generation of practitioners who want to lead, not follow.

Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just beginning your coaching journey, this one will challenge the way you think about learning, performance, and purpose.
