The Athletic Mind episodes

  • Look Good, Feel Good, Play Good

    The infamous, “look good, feel good, play good” is something that all athletes understand. If you take the time to look nice, you’ll show up feeling good about yourself, and when you feel good about yourself, you’ll play better. Taylor and Lauren take a deeper look at the impact that this can play on athletic performance and discuss how athletes can incorporate mental training into their routine to stop leaving their performance up to chance and help them show up at their best.

  • You Don't Need a 'C' To Be a Leader

    Leadership. Commonly associated with being a coach or holding a 'C' or an 'A' on the jersey. But that doesn't necessarily make you a good leader. Leadership is not a role, it is a behaviour. Taylor and Lauren dig into some of the behaviours that characterize leaders and how you can strategically improve your own skills as a leader.

  • Validating Progress in a Losing Season

    It can be really easy to feel like your under performing in the midst of a losing streak or season. Taylor and Lauren chat about an extremely important skill that athletes of all ages and skill levels should have: internal validation. They discuss the difference between internal and external validation, how each impacts performance, and how athletes and teams can start to build the skill of validating their own performance - even in a losing season. Remember to answer the poll and submit any questions (for Spotify users only)
