Some of the things we chatted to Luke about in this session…

• How Luke's passion for sailing was first ignited as a 10-year-old watching the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, and how he's worked to fuel and manage that passion throughout his career.
• The story of how Luke teamed up with his longtime sailing partner Chris "Twiggy" Grube and their long journey together.
• Luke's instant success and chemistry when teaming up with Stuart Bithell, including the chaotic and memorable story of their first major win at the 470 World Championships.
• Insights into Luke's temperament and ability to have fun even at intense moments like the London 2012 Olympics (standing out among other more tightly-wound competitors!)
• The mental challenges Luke faced after retiring from Olympic sailing and grieving the loss of that driving passion before finding a new path with his whisky business.
