Jonny Wilkinson talks about New Zealand & South Africa dominating rugby & reframing stress & anxiety

World Cup winner Jonny Wilkinson answers questions from the Oxford Union audience about the benefits of reframing stress and anxiety. He discusses what it is about South Africa & New Zealand which makes them so successful in World Cups and how he handled his transition from the life of a professional rugby player into retirement.
Wilkinson famously kicked the drop goal which won the England the Rugby World Cup in Australia in 2003.
Since his retirement from the sport in 2014, he has become a pundit for ITV News as well as launching a clothing line, Fineside, and a healthy drinks company, No.1 Living, brewing kombucha.

ABOUT THE OXFORD UNION SOCIETY: The Oxford Union is the world's most prestigious debating society, with an unparalleled reputation for bringing international guests and speakers to Oxford. Since 1823, the Union has been promoting debate and discussion not just in Oxford University, but across the globe.
The Oxford Union is deeply grateful and encouraged by the messages of support in response to our determination to uphold free speech. During our 200 year history, many have tried to shut us down. As the effects of self-imposed censorship on university campuses, social media and the arts show no signs of dissipating, the importance of upholding free speech remains as critical today as it did when we were founded in 1823. Your support is critical in enabling The Oxford Union to continue its mission without interruption and without interference. You can support the Oxford Union here: oxford-union.org/supportus

I've watched Jonny play (or should that be kicking?) against the ABs... but JW talking about curiosity, trust, excitement and imaginable lens; and insight into the man Jonny is. Kudos Jonny
