Finding Mastery with Dr. Michael Gervais

Day 14 - So Long, From Paris: Lessons Learned from the 2024 Games | The Game Inside The Games


Listen Later

All good things must come to an end…

In our closing episode of The Game Inside The Games, gold medalist Nastia Liukin and high-performance psychologist Dr. Michael Gervais reflect on the most inspiring moments of the series and The Games in Paris. 

They discuss pivotal stories from Paris – from Simone Biles and Suni Lee’s comeback to Turkish shooter Yusuf Dikeç’s casual precision, Noah Lyles’ photo finish, Katie Ledecky’s dominance, and how Stephen Nedoroscik captured the world’s attention – emphasizing the human side of their journeys and the mental skills required to succeed. 

The episode encapsulates the spirit of The Games, highlighting the importance of mental strength, authenticity, and the universal lessons that extend beyond the world of sports.

Our hope with this series is that you're able to find one thing – one practice or insight from these conversations – that you can incorporate into your own life to get just a little bit better… and to be more at home with yourself in any environment. 

Olympians are a great emblem for what humans are capable of when we commit to exploring our potential – but that is not reserved for Olympians alone. That is available to you too – to all of us. We have so much more inside of us if we are willing to go there.
