Listen Later

One day you're playing with confidence, and the next, you're in a slump. You start overthinking, try to push through, but end up stuck in a cycle of frustration and self-doubt. Why does trying harder only make it worse?

The truth is these slumps are normal, but many athletes don’t realize that managing slumps isn’t just about performance — it’s about mindset.

Today, I’m giving you four go-to strategies for breaking free of slumps so you can start playing like yourself again. You’ll learn what to focus on, what to let go of, and how to handle the pressure to perform.

Whether you’re a coach or an athlete, here's your game plan to reset and get back in the game!

Topics discussed:

  • The mental struggle athletes experience during a slump
  • The impact on confidence and performance
  • Why pushing harder can make things worse
  • Four strategies to break out of a slump
