106: Athlete Brain and How You Can Learn to Leverage it for Yourself and Your Kids

If you are a driven, competitive, and disciplined person, whether it’s in the gym or in LIFE, this is a must-listen.

The conversation about athlete brain- what it is, how it shows up, and how it can be leveraged in a variety of ways, keeps evolving as we do.

When we become parents, it’s even more important to address how we navigate this mentality within ourselves and in how we support our kids as they experience sports, competition, pressure, and confidence.
