In this episode of The Mental Weight Room, Antoinette Datoc breaks down why group mental performance training is one of the most powerful—and overlooked—tools for athletes who want to perform with confidence, consistency, and control.

This month’s training topic is a game-changing one: Self-Awareness & The Inner Voice—the foundation for every other mental skill.

Athletes can’t change what they aren’t aware of.

And they can’t out-perform a negative inner voice.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

🔹 Why group mental training accelerates learning

🔹 How shared experiences normalize the mental game

🔹 Why athletes build confidence faster in a group setting

🔹 What self-awareness actually is

🔹 How thoughts form and why they sometimes spiral

🔹 The difference between self-awareness and self-knowledge

🔹 How negativity bias affects performance

🔹 How neuroplasticity allows you to retrain your inner voice

🔹 A practical framework for managing thoughts using facts over fear

Whether you’re an athlete who struggles with overthinking, post-mistake frustration, performance anxiety, or mental fatigue…

this training session is where your growth begins.
