034: Lizzie Mitchell | Boston University - Finding your internal “why” to be a successful college rower


Listen Later

In this episode, Lizzie Mitchell, associate head coach for the Boston University Women’s Rowing program, dives deep into both the physical, and the mental side of being successful as a college rower, and what athletes should expect if they hope to row for a competitive Division 1 program!

Lizzie and I talk about…

  • The reality of how much time being a Division 1 rower requires, and figuring out if that is truly something you are looking for in your college experience

  • How to discover your “internal motivation” and the “why” behind you being a college rower, and why that is more important than “external motivations”

  • Mastering the mental side of rowing through mental performance coaching and “quiet sitting”
