Fear of failure. Pressure to be perfect. The weight of not letting anyone down.

College-bound athletes are under more pressure than ever — and most of it is happening silently, behind the scenes.

In this episode, we break down the real mental blocks sabotaging recruiting success — and how to shift from spiraling under pressure to rising through it.

You’ll learn:

– Why fear of failure kills motivation — and how to rebuild confidence

– The difference between perfectionism vs. high standards (and which one actually gets her recruited)

– How to reframe pressure as a privilege — not a punishment

– The mindset shift every parent and coach should adopt to reduce anxiety

– What the WIN Method is — and how it gives athletes a clear path forward

Whether your athlete is deep in the process or just getting started, this episode will help her shift from fear to focus — and lead her own journey with courage.
