Mental toughness seems to have been preached and praised to athletes as long as athletes have competed...But the problem lies when already "mentally tough" athletes find themselves broken (mentally and physically) after injury. This is where I believe embracing vulnerability can shine. Cue in the work I have discovered by Dr. Brené Brown, world renowned author and Ted speaker on "The Power of Vulnerability". In this solo episode I present a bigger and better offer (BBO) to mental toughness after injury for athletes to embody, inspired by the very relevant work of Dr. Brown. Click the link above "The Power of Vulnerability" to watch Dr. Brené

 Brown's very inspirational Ted talk and backstory to this episode. One day we will bring Brené on the show!

Are you constantly swinging for the fences? Your plate approach in rehab matters...Joined by performance coach John Denney, this episode completes the last of the 3 questions to ask yourself in order to overcome your daily freakout moment. “What is the right hit for the situation you are in?” When we come from a place of feeling like we NEED to get that big hit all of the time whether it is after injury or helping someone transform through one, it can become counter-productive from a performance standpoint. Learn how John Denney and I discovered a better approach to take when performing. Instead, coming from a place of love and want might just change the game for you!

A simple process always beats a complicated one...

Asking Yourself the Question "If It Were Easy, What Would It Look Like" can change everything, including your Injured to Elite rehab journey. Special shout out to Pat Flynn who inspired me to utilize this question which was originally posed to him by Tim Ferris, author of The 4 Hour Work Week. You can click here to watch the video where he shares the story behind this question.

In this solo episode during the "Dog Days of August" I discuss the 3 questions to ask yourself in order to overcome your daily "freakout" moments that many (including myself) experience. The daily freakout is that moment in the day where we tend to question everything...Am I on the right track? Will this pain ever go away? What the heck am I doing with my life???These are daily freakout questions that can be substituted with much more productive self reflection that I pose to you in this episode.
