Welcome to this week's podcast!!

Today, we get to journey into the mind of a Major League Pitcher! We get to explore how a top-level athlete thinks and acts. I am proud to introduce you to Daniel Winkler, a right-handed pitcher from the Atlanta Braves!

Daniel and I cover a lot of ground in this podcast interview. We talk about his pre-game routine, his self-talk on the mound, specifically between pitches, the impact of becoming a father, and a variety of other topics.

The #1 thing we spend time on though is how he overcame major adversity. For Daniel, it was two arm surgeries, including one driven from breaking his arm after he threw a pitch. Wow!

I love spending time with Daniel and had a fun time in this interview. I know you will enjoy it also! Check it out!
