Authentic Leadership at an Elite Level | Alyssa D’Errico, Head Volleyball Coach - University of Utah
In this episode of the Max Out Mindset Podcast, Coach Jess sits down with Alyssa D’Errico, head coach of Utah Volleyball, for a powerful conversation on leadership, mindset, and what it truly means to max out. Alyssa shares her journey from championship athlete to head coach and unpacks how elite performers sustain success without losing themselves in the process. The conversation dives into why behaviors—not results—must drive performance, how authenticity allows athletes to stay present under pressure, and why connection is the foundation of championship culture.  You’ll hear real stories about managing competitiveness, learning emotional control, training response after failure, and helping athletes move from frustration to freedom. Alyssa also explains how elite programs “out-team” opponents by aligning coaches, athletes, and support staff around shared standards and trust.  This episode is packed with practical insight for athletes, coaches, and leaders who want to: ·       Stay consistent when results fluctuate ·       Train focus, readiness, and response under pressure ·       Use failure as feedback instead of fear ·       Build confidence without comparison ·       Lead with clarity, connection, and purpose  Whether you’re a high school athlete, college competitor, or coach building culture, this conversation offers a clear reminder: who you are and how you show up every day matters!
