In the first episode of "Chatting with Chapman," we sit down with Professional Track athlete Josephus to explore the mental strategies that have fueled his success on the track.

From working with sports psychologists at a young age, Josephus learned key techniques like visualization, breath work, and mindfulness, helping him manage pressure and stay grounded. He shares how these mental skills have allowed him to accept failure, maintain perspective, and avoid putting too much pressure on himself—even at the highest levels of competition. Josephus reminds us all of the importance of enjoying the process and staying focused on the journey, not just the outcomes.
