How much of performance is mental vs physical? Is that something you can even quantify? Probably not, but the two are clearly inextricably linked. Mental Performance Coach Shannon Mulcahy (@mulcahyperformance) joins the show this week to talk about the role your MIND plays in your performance!

  • What do we mean when we talk about the mental side of performance?
  • The toxic side of telling someone anything is possible if they want it enough
  • "Mental strength" vs "mental toughness"
  • Setting goals & including mental performance skills
  • Self-talk & skill-building
  • Performance anxiety
  • and more!
  • Shannon Mulcahy is the founder of Mulcahy Performance Consulting - a sport psychology practice helping athletes to train their minds like they train their bodies.
