This is where we work.

There are only three things you can train. Most athletes train two. This is a road map for the third.

The Approach

You already know how to train your body. Now it's time to train your mind.

Mindset and mental skills training is about optimizing the way we use our minds to perform at our best — and ultimately to become the best version of ourselves. Most of us never get a class on how to manage our thoughts and feelings.

This is a template for how to go about doing that — grounded in the good science of psychology, elite sport experience, and ancient Eastern philosophical approaches.

"Pressure is a privilege. Every moment is a big moment."
The Framework

Performance Mindset Training

A complete mental skills system, organized into three buckets — the same framework used with athletes from youth sport through the Olympic level.

Bucket One

Psychological Framework & Identity Development

The foundation everything else is built on — vision, goals, and the ten core principles of high performance.

  • Vision & goal setting
  • Ten core principles
  • Identity & self-discovery
Bucket Two

The Seven Mental Skills

The trainable core of the inner game — each skill builds on the last to form a complete mental toolkit.

  • Awareness, Focus, Optimism
  • Calm, Confidence
  • Resilience, Imagery
Bucket Three

The Six Pillars of Recovery

The body and brain foundation that makes mental skills training possible in the first place.

  • Sleep, Nutrition, Hydration
  • Meditation
  • Muscle Recovery, Supplementation

About

Trained under one of the field's pioneers.

I'm a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in high performance in sport, working with athletes of all levels — from collegiate and high school up through the Olympic and professional ranks. I've also done extensive work with high-level business professionals, including Fortune 500 CEOs.

I had the privilege of training under Dr. Michael Gervais, one of the pioneers in this field. That foundation — combined with the science of clinical psychology and ancient Eastern philosophical approaches — shapes everything in this work.
