Episode 268 of the InGoal Radio Podcast, presented by The Hockey Shop Source for Sports, features a fantastic conversation with Mental Coach and author Julia Allain.

In the feature interview presented by NHL Sense Arena, Allain shares a lot of the lessons that InGoal first heard her present at the USA Hockey National Goaltending Symposium in Minnesota earlier this summer. It's a wide ranging discussion on things goalies, goalie parents and coaches -- both goalie and head -- can do to develop a mindset that will allow them to be better prepared for the inevitable challenges that come with the position. From how to work on mental skills daily and focus on cognitive skills instead of emotional stress, to how coaches speak to their athletes, this interview is loaded with great takeaways and advice.

In our Parents Segment, presented by the Stop It Goaltending U app, we talk how to manage tryouts as a parent, and in a way that will help your goalie approach them with the right mindset.

And in our weekly gear segment, we go to The Hockey Shop Source for Sports for a closer look at the Brian's ICONIK X pads and gloves, a lower price point option with plenty of pro features.
