Description

Does your son or daughters struggle with performance anxiety? Do the athletes you coach excel at practice, and then cave to anxiety attacks at the game? Are your younger siblings or teammates struggling with performance anxiety and you don't know how to help?


If you resonate with these statements, then I'd love to help you out! This is the first episode in a three part series geared towards helping parents and coaches of athletes. In this episode I discuss how you can use empathy to prevent anxiety attacks before they happen, and what 3 step process you can do with your athletes when they are having an anxiety attack.

To build a state of confidence I coach athletes to focus on six different mindset areas:



  1. Strong thoughts - because our thoughts drive our emotions which drive our actions.

  2. Action taker - because you don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great

  3. Uniquely you - because success comes from liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it

  4. Clear focus - Because being focused in life is not only knowing what you want, but also how and why

  5. Self Trust - because there is no one else on this earth that is better suited to determine your dreams and make them happen

  6. Journey Mentality - Because as Winston Churchill said: success is not final; failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts


These are the core mindsets that all my coaching stems from, and I couldn't be happier making the unthinkable happen for athletes!
