Do you ever wonder why it can be so difficult to do the things you want to do, even when you are aware they are the things you want? Yet you still struggle to do them? How many times have you given up on an idea? On yourself? On becoming the everything you were made to be?Maybe you started going after a goal and didn’t tell anyone so no one would know just how much effort you put in when you didn’t get it done. Maybe you hid how much effort it took you to get it done.Or maybe you choose to do the things that are easier to get done, so you don’t get to some things you really want that will require more effort. Effort you can’t be certain will be worth it. Effort you can’t be certain you’ll have the capacity to sustain. Effort you wake up in the middle of the night wishing you had invested in making years ago, but when you wake up in the morning, you don’t know how to start, so you don’t.It takes effort to pave a path for yourself. It takes effort to make the most of opportunity. It takes effort to make the most of your life.Copyright 2025 Jill Williams & MettlEdge Performance Coaching

Hi, I’m Jill Williams, founder and president of MettlEdge, avid stillness advocate, and creator of The MettlEdge Mind: Coaching your high-octane brain to take control of your time, tension, tone, talents, tasks, teamwork, and emotional turbulence to shape a strong sense of self, purpose, and belonging.The MettlEdge Podcast exists to help women shaped by college sports shape their own strong sense of self, purpose, and belonging--what we call their MettlEdge.To be shaped by college sports means you carry with you a mentality that says whatever you are doing, you can work hard enough at it to improve your performance in that area. You will put in the work to do all the things with excellence for the win. So, you often do everything—to get the win.The thing is, you were not made to do everything. Doing everything is leaving many women in coaching and former athletes are burned out, discouraged, and alone.Copyright 2025 Jill Williams & MettlEdge Performance Coaching

Julia Child once said, "Find something you're passionate about and keep tremendously interested in it."
I'm passionate about shaping core strength & character. I'm passionate…
This is my podcast playground for exploring the things that I'm passionate about to help me keep tremendously interested in them. Systhesizing information, creating thought-provoking frameworks, and sharing them as food for thought helps keep my interest-levels high.
All of my work is filtered through the lense of scripture and grounded in the research-based, practical Full 34 Gallup CliftonStrengths© talent assessment. However, I consider my job to be that of being a conversation starter, helping you align with your values and beliefs, not with mine. So, if you don't hold the scriptures as truth or if you do not agree with the results of your Gallup assessment, all I ask of you is that you think for yourself, believing you can increase your capacity for thought and decision making.
I don't tell you what to think. I just make sure you do so you stay sharp-minded, aligned and authentic, not just ambitious and ahead. If you didn't realize it yet, we live in a world that's making it easier and easier to be dull.
What do you think of when you hear the words "core strength & character"?
If you are more intested in finding peace of mind in the chaos than you are in finding balance in your life, this podcast is for you.
If peace of mind is connected to your thriving with intensity, influence, and integrity, this podcast is for you.
If you want to shape yourself into what you stand for so you stay aligned and authentic—not just ambitious and ahead, this podcast is for you.
I share short, thought-provoking episodes weekly to drive people to take authentic and sustainable action in alignment with their own values and beliefs and skillsets and abilities and hopes and dreams. I encourage people to use their emotional response in concert with their cognitive thinking to make fully informed, whole person choices. I share my thoughts so you generate your own.
Join me for 15 to 20 minutes weekly to gain focus, fuel, and fight for the things that matter most to you!
