Some opportunities take me across the country—but some of the most rewarding ones are right here at home. Seeing their growth firsthand over just a few weeks? That’s what fuels me. Grateful for every opportunity to help athletes level up their mindset and perform at their best!

Mental toughness isn’t just about grit in tough moments—it’s about showing up with energy, enthusiasm, and joy, no matter what’s happening around you. Athletes like Kait remind us that attitude is a skill and a mindset!

Good coaches share lessons from their experience. Great coaches help you identify lessons from your experience. Good coaches give useful answers. Great coaches help you ask better questions. Good coaches walk you through their path. Great coaches help you find your own path.

It's better to embrace the discomfort of doubt than to live with the regret of overconfidence. That discomfort is one of the best motivators of practice & preparation. Use doubt to work for you as your leverage to propel you forward.

Striving for excellence SHOULD BE hard. The odds of success SHOULD BE low. If they weren’t, everyone would do it, and if everyone did it, there would be no opportunity. Your RESPONSE to the struggle & adversity gives you an edge. Will you embrace it?

Confidence isn’t about being the loudest or the flashiest. It’s about being grounded in who you are, free from doubt and worry. When you let go of limiting beliefs and obsessive self-criticism, you create space to perform, grow, and thrive. True confidence is quiet & steady.

If you judge your worth by your achievements, you tend to feel worthless whenever you fall short of a goal. Building a stable foundation of confidence comes from learning to separate your performance from your self-esteem. Your accomplishments and accolades do not define you.

If you don’t shape your life, it will be shaped for you. And to shape your life, you need to know how to shape your mind.

Whenever I notice envy creeping in, I use it as an indicator to re-examine my goals instead of falling into the comparison trap. Using envy as an indicator has transformed the way I view myself and increased my joy. Clap for others' successes. I promise it won't hinder yours.

The grit that matters most is learning to be your best when you’re at your worst.

You aren't guaranteed a win. You aren't guaranteed to get the job. You aren't guaranteed success. There are no guarantees. But there are regrets. Keep showing up!

Pressure is all about your mindset. You either see the moment as a threat you aren't capable of facing or as an opportunity to show what you're capable of. Prime your mind.

Think of mistakes as a euro-step. Mistakes don't always halt your momentum; they help you figure out a better path forward and around your "defender." Mistakes are the side-step that allow you to get comfortable with failure. Just make sure you have the right APPROACH.

If you spent 15 minutes a day on your dream, how much further along would you be in a year? 3 years? 5? We don't always need big audacious actions. Just small, consistent ones. Transform your life with your "Daily 15's." Rooting for your success this year!

The foundation of how you lead yourself is the baseline for how you will lead everyone else.
