1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 Welcome to the Inspired Athlete podcast! In this episode, we are tackling one of the heaviest burdens our teenage athletes carry: the crushing weight of trying to please everyone around them . Drawing on a powerful (and surprisingly liberating) quote from Marcus Aurelius—&quot;soon you will have forgotten everything, soon everything will have forgotten you&quot;—we dive into how we can help our kids drop the heavy backpack of other people's expectations . I talk about the danger of &quot;time traveling&quot; in performance , why we need to help them put on mental &quot;blinkers&quot; to block out the noise , and how shifting from an external scoreboard to an internal one builds unstoppable, lasting confidence . Plus, I'll share details on my 6-step Inspired Game Plan, designed to help athletes separate who they are from how they perform so they can compete freely . Head over to inspiredathletemp.com to learn how we can train your athlete’s mental game with intention ! Let’s dive in !
