Navigating Life After Sport - Part 2 - Carol Fox
Navigating life after sport isn’t just about what comes next. It’s about learning how to respond, reset, and move forward with confidence.
In Part 2 of our conversation with leadership coach and communicator Carol Fox, we explore practical ways to steady yourself in high-pressure moments. From a grounded confidence stance you can use anywhere to simple reframes that shift focus and calm emotional reactions, these are tools athletes (and anyone) can apply long after the final whistle.
As the former President of Women Sport Australia, co-author of Confident Communication for Leaders, and one of the Australian Financial Review’s 100 Women of Influence (2020), Carol’s work spans every level of sport, from community programs to national high-performance systems.
🎙️ In this episode:
- The “strand of beads” model for emotions and why small moments can trigger big reactions
- Fight, flight, freeze and fawn, and how to reset with “that’s not about me”
- The confidence stance versus the power pose and how physiology shapes mindset
- Red-car focus and reframing, training your attention to support performance and wellbeing
- Daily compassion and curiosity as lifelong performance skills
