On this episode of the Purple Patch Podcast, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon reflects on the long history of the Purple Patch Pro Squad and the lessons you can apply to your own performance journey.

Whether you're an athlete, the leader of an organization or team, a coach, or just someone striving to live a better and longer life, the stories we'll discuss today can greatly influence your mindset and approach toward achieving success.

Matt explores three essential lessons that contributed to the athletes' incredible achievements: the collective mindset as a driver for individual success, the importance of a team approach in a sport centered on individual performance, and the practices and skills beyond training that drove effectiveness and performance gains.

Each driver of success is broken down to simplify elements that athletes of any level can integrate into their training program.

We also have supporting materials for the show, which we highly recommend reading. After the show, head over to our Purple Patch Methodology webpage, a brand new webpage that takes you through the journey, results, highlights, and lessons from over 15 years of Matt guiding athletes to the highest level of performance.

You'll discover countless individual success stories beneath the results and summaries. We'll dig deeper into these stories in the coming weeks and months, highlighting individual athletes and revealing valuable insights into elite performance and success. Each story will offer radical lessons on mindset, approach, managing adversity, giving and receiving feedback, and most certainly a bit of humor.

Be sure to check out the webpage and stick around for future episodes. It's going to be a fun journey.
