Raising Elite Competitors

Summer Confidence Series (Part 4 of 4): Why Mental Toughness Is Overrated - What To Do Instead


Listen Later

Is the “mental toughness” mantra leaving your daughter stressed and burnt out? You’re not alone!  In this episode, we’re ditching the old playbook and creating a game plan for building confidence, not crushing spirits.

Here’s what you’ll learn (and why it matters):

  • Why the “suck it up” approach actually hurts confidence.
  • How to be your daughter’s safe space.
  • The “What to Say Challenge” that gets results (and keeps the communication flowing!).
  • Pre-game pep talks that ACTUALLY work (ditch the generic advice!).
  • How to support your daughter during competition (without being THAT sideline parent!).
  • Post-competition conversations that build resilience (and avoid the post-game blues!).

This episode is for YOU if:

  • You’re a sports parent who wants to see your daughter thrive, not just win.
  • You’re tired of the pressure to be “mentally tough” and want a more supportive approach.
  • You’re looking for actionable tips to build your daughter’s confidence on and off the field.

Ready to ditch the “old way” and create a winning environment for your daughter? Hit play and let’s get started!
