🏥 THE COMEBACK MINDSET: BOUNCING BACK FROM INJURY & SETBACKS

Athletes with higher fear and anxiety during recovery are 13 TIMES more likely to suffer a second injury. Not 13 percent. 13 TIMES. Why? Because recovery isn't just physical—it's MENTAL. In this episode, I break down what separates athletes who come back STRONGER from those who never fully recover.

🎯 WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
- Why your MIND determines your recovery speed 
- The 3 mental techniques that speed physical recovery (and why most athletes skip them)
- Why fear of re-injury becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy (and how to break the cycle)
- The mental toll of forced retirement (when your career ends before you're ready)
