Just like basketball players need coaches, college athletes need coaches for their content creation and marketing. In this SportsMatterz episode, we have a conversation about a journey in the basketball world, including time as a player, coach, and trainer. We get into why athletes should create content in the first place and how athletes can seek help for their content marketing. 

With Name, Image, and Likeness officially in play, athletes now have this unprecedented opportunity to stand out by creating content while still in college. A former player at Nazareth College talks about how athletes at smaller Division 3 schools can get started on their content creation journey.

With a focus on content creation in the sports world, we are excited to bring you this episode in the SportsMatterz series.

“To be the best, you must overcome your inner and outer opponents.” – Henrik Hjarsbæk. 

Welcome to this episode of the SportsEpreneur Podcast where Eric Kasimov has an introspective conversation around soccer (football) and mental training with sports psychologist and mental trainer, Henrik Hjarsbæk. 

By going to a mental trainer, you learn to deal with pressure, fear, and nervousness. You learn to perform well even when you have negative thoughts, low self-esteem, and experience disturbances. All of these training areas help you beat your opponent both on the inside and outside. 

Specifically in this episode, we talk about how to apply mental training to the game, the uniqueness every footballer has on the pitch, journaling your feelings, youth soccer, the goalkeeping position, Henrik’s time playing with top football clubs in Denmark, his transition from footballer to mental trainer, and much more in this wide-ranging sports and mental training discussion. 

We hope you enjoy this episode with Henrik Hjarsbæk.

In this inspiring SE podcast episode, we revisit a discussion Eric Kasimov had with Portland Timbers’ goalkeeper, Jeff Attinella.

Jeff talks about being mentally and physically ready for that moment when you’re called on to the field. He also discusses the future of United States soccer on a global scale and how ruthless professional sports can be–Jeff would know as he is an MLS goalkeeper.

The moments for goalkeepers in soccer can often be few and far between. Whether it is in-game or between games. It’s not uncommon for a goalkeeper to see very little in-game action and then have to make a critical save in the closing minutes. And with there being only one starting goalkeeper spot available for a team, it’s not uncommon for a backup keeper to have to wait for their time to play.

No matter when that moment comes, we all know being ready is key. That’s why we are fascinated by the keeper position in soccer. There are few positions like it in sports. And we can learn so much from a keeper at a high level of soccer.

Besides being a goalkeeper, Jeff is a husband, father, and content creator. A creator in the sense that he is a podcast host and children’s book author. His children’s books can be found on his publishing platform, ItHadToBeTold.com or Amazon. After you spend time listening to Jeff and learning about his story, you will absolutely be drawn to his content. Listen to more of Jeff’s story | Episode 27 on the SE Podcast.
