High Stakes Success

High Stakes Success is a performance psychology podcast hosted by Jesse Day that examines the mindset of people who have been successful in a profession that induces high levels of stress and is often dangerous or even life-threatening. We aim to analyze the common threads of self-discipline and performance under pressure that all of these professionals face in their careers and look at ways that our listeners can use their thought process and psychology to overcome fear, self-doubt and procrastination. We'll be interviewing fighters, rodeo athletes, race car drivers, survival experts and more. In addition to different tools that everyone can use to improve themselves, we will explore certain points in each interview subject’s career where they faced great adversity. A time they just wanted to give up but pushed through it or an incident that put them in a great deal of danger in the line of duty. How did they overcome these situations and what can we learn from it? Most importantly, we aim to have fun and enlighten listeners with interesting facts, cool stories and eye-opening statistics in the realm of high-stakes professions that require grit, determination and self-mastery to succeed.
