S1E1 Lions Unpacked: Argentina Clash, Tour Preview & Team Banter

S1E3 Lions Unpacked: Belonging, Banter & Building a Better Culture, featuring Ashton Hewitt

Season 1, Episode 3 In this powerful episode, we’re joined by former Dragons rugby star Ashton Hewitt, who’s now stepping into the business world as a HR Management Consultant, specialising in Equality, Diversity & Inclusion (ED&I). Alongside Andrew Coombs, Rhys Webb, and Rob Webb, Ashton opens up about his rugby journey. From the challenges he faced around race, inclusion, and the outdated ‘banter’ that still lingers in parts of sport to becoming a strong voice for change in Welsh sport.  We explore how inclusion starts with culture – and how the lessons from elite sport apply directly to business. What does it take to build a team where everyone feels seen, safe, and supported? What’s the line between banter and bias? And how do organisations move beyond token gestures to real, lasting change? Plus, of course – we round things off with some bold predictions for the next Lions games. If you care about people, performance, and progress, you’ll want to tune in.

We explore how sporting values like resilience, selflessness, and a never-give-up attitude can drive high performance across any team.  Whether you're building a team or backing one, this one’s not to be missed.
