The Mattering Mindset: How to Feel Valued and Add Value | The Mental Training Lab with Pete Kadushin


Listen Later

Have you ever achieved a big goal, only to feel something was missing afterward? Or wondered why no amount of external validation ever seems quite enough? Today, I’m excited to reshare a meaningful conversation from the Mental Training Lab podcast, where I sat down with sport and performance psychology expert Pete Kadushin to talk about the powerful concept of “mattering.”

If you are a regular listener, you know how this message has impacted me: how shifting from perfectionistic, outcome-driven mindsets toward purposeful action and intrinsic motivation can transform not just your performance but also your entire approach to life. We discuss why feeling valued and adding value to others is far more fulfilling than chasing external accolades, how to recognize and use your character strengths to foster deeper connections, and practical strategies for cultivating lasting resilience and well-being.

Here is what you’ll learn:

  • The power of mattering
  • Overcoming perfectionism
  • Leveraging character strengths
  • The importance of recognition and communication
  • Savoring and gratitude practices
