Learn the Mental Edge Formula
This program is a hybrid design that allows your athlete to learn the Mental Edge Formula through instructional video lessons and activities (delivered through a free app). This content is self-paced.
In the Mental Edge Formula athletes will learn how to:
Develop Self-Awareness
Develop the ability to tune into and be mindful of their thoughts, emotions and physiological responses and understand these affect their ability to perform at their best. They will also learn the importance of optimism and having a growth mindset.
Sharpen Your Focus
Hone the tools and tips for staying motivated and focused while pursuing goals. Build the ability to “lock in” their focus during performance focusing on the right things at the right time. Use Mindfulness techniques to build your concentration muscles.
Build Winning Confidence
Learn the different sources of confidence and how to leverage them to become confident in themselves, their game and their process. Athletes will learn the common beliefs and errors in thinking that erode confidence and develop personal hacks to enhance their confidence and courage to handle any high pressure moment.
Overcome Your Nerves
Harness your physiological responses (nerves) in order to stay calm and composed under pressure. Learn how to prime your energy to match the demands of your performance and to rethink the stress response.
Build Your Resilience
Maintain optimism, bounce back from adversity and thrive in any situation. Failure is a very common experience in sport and in life. If your athlete doesn’t build their capacity to handle, learn from and grow from failure it will be very difficult to excel in life. This section focuses on helping athletes put sport in perspective, normalize failure and give them specific tools to bounce back quickly.
Perform at Your Best
In this step athletes learn how to put all the skills they’ve learned into a personal performance plan that will set conditions for success. This helps them take control of the mental and emotional side of performance and gain a mental edge on the competition.
In addition to the content there is a weekly group coaching call. This is held at the same time every week via Zoom. This call is an opportunity for your athlete to get specific help on applying the Mental Edge Formula, discuss challenges or request relevant time sensitive coaching to gain the mental edge. All calls will be recorded, if your athlete is not able to attend they can watch the recording of the call.
The program also includes a community chat, accountability features and the ability to ask questions of me through the app (especially making the weekly coaching call is difficult due to schedule conflicts).
