The Discomfort Zone

Ep #24 Holley Gardel on Adjusting Your Attitude and Altitude in Flying and in Life


Listen Later

In this episode, helicopter air ambulance pilot, Holley Gardel, shares strategies for transforming negative feelings into powerful cues that propel you to perform at your best.

We talk about the power of mental performance training, how it unlocks potential in every aspect of life, and how it's not just for elite athletes. Holley champions thorough preparation, seeking support, and celebrating even the smallest victories on the path to your success.

Holley shares candid insights into her career as a female pilot in a male-dominated industry, addresses common misconceptions about aviation and the critical role of mentorship for women in the field.

Through her stories, Holley emphasizes the importance of resilience, shares wisdom she has gained from her mentors and coaches, and the joy of fulfillment that comes from committing to your passions.

If you want to learn how to adjust your attitude and altitude (I didn't realize that there is actually something called an attitude adjuster in a helicopter cockpit) to navigate your discomfort zone with more confidence and joy, then you'll want to listen to this conversation!
