Description

Three-time Olympic medalist April Ross is coming to the end of her storied volleyball career, but the mental acumen and internal processes that drove her to excel on the court are still as sharp as ever. She talks about how these developed throughout her career, how she found joy on and off the court, and how her priorities have changed from when she just started as a professional athlete.

 

Topics discussed include: 

  • One last hurrah for the A-Team and winding down April's career
  • Becoming a mom and how that shifted  April's perception of herself
  • The importance of preparation and process before, during and after a match
  • How she developed an intuition that guided her throughout her career
  • Overcoming perfectionism and boosting priorities other than volleyball
