PerformHappy with Rebecca Smith

Parenting Through Mental Blocks with Sport Mom & Coach Holly Johnson


Listen Later

In the latest episode of the PerformHappy Podcast, I had the pleasure of speaking with Holly Johnson, a dedicated sport mom, coach, and member of our PerformHappy community. Holly shares her powerful journey of navigating mental blocks with her daughter, a tumbler and dancer.

As a former athlete herself, Holly has experienced the highs and lows that come with guiding a young athlete through the challenges of sports. Over the years, she’s faced the frustration of mental blocks, made mistakes, and adjusted her approach, all while remaining a supportive coach and parent. Now, she’s on the other side of that journey, with valuable insights to share.

If your child is struggling with long-term mental blocks or if you're a parent navigating these challenges, this episode is for you. Holly’s candid reflections offer practical advice on what your athlete really needs to achieve a breakthrough and how to adapt as confidence ebbs and flows throughout their career.

I hope Holly’s story inspires you as much as it did me. Enjoy the episode!

In this episode, Coach Rebecca and Coach Holly Johnson talk about:

Holly’s Coaching Background and Family Dynamics.

Navigating the Challenges of Being Both Coach and Parent.

The Do’s and Don’ts when Addressing Mental Blocks.

Learning and Adapting the Perform Happy Method.

Shifting Perspectives and Understanding the Bigger Picture in Gymnastics.

Parenting Strategies for Building Confidence in All Sports.

Must Hear Advice for Parents Facing Tough Times.

“Honestly, my top advice is to avoid coaching your own child if possible. Your relationship with them is far more important, and it’s not worth risking that for the sake of coaching." — Coach Holly Johnson
