Description

I had the privilege of sitting down with Jake Thompson, Leadership Performance Coach, Author, and Chief Encouragement Officer at Compete Every Day. We dig into how athletes can turn comparison into fuel, own their role, and compete for the standard in the mirror while becoming better teammates. 


Episode Highlights:

• Comparison as a tool rather than a threat
• Clarifying the game and controlling controllables
• Accepting your starting position and role
• Gap and gain mindset anchored in gratitude
• Process praise over outcome praise for parents
