117: From the Softball Field to Professional Drag Racing with Melanie Johnson
Update: 2025-12-17
Description
This week, we step outside of softball and head into the drag racing world. I sat down with Melanie Johnson, a professional drag racer, who shares how tiny adjustments, sharp focus, and trust in instinct turn five seconds of chaos into calm execution.
Episode Highlights:
• Pre-run routines that reduce noise
• Evidence-based self-talk and focus cues
• Visual strategies, focal points, and cockpit blinders
• Practice tree habits and reaction time limits
• Reframing fear of failure and NIL-era stress
• "Shrinking moments"
