- Resetting and retraining our brain, and what that looks like in practice (26:13)
- The concept of “what you celebrate, you practice,” and how it relates to the mindfulness conversation (38:03)
- Fixed vs. Growth mindset and what it has to do with soccer (46:02)
- Is it really true that you play like you practice? (58:01)
- Can we recreate the stress and pressure of a penalty kick in training? (1:01:26)
