Becoming My Stronger Me
"Becoming My Stronger Me” is a podcast designed to help you become stronger in mind, body, and heart and is hosted by Coach Nassim Ebrahimi, PhD.
Season 1 - Like 47 million other Americans, I voluntarily left my successful full-time career to pursue, well, whatever was next. We’ll call this “my great resignation.” As you get to know me, you’ll see that I’m a type-A planner. So to make a life choice without some grand detailed master plan on the other side was unheard of. But now, 2 years later, it was the best decision of my life. Join me as I share my story, questions I asked myself (or wish I had), missteps I made (and how to avoid them), the effect this had on me and everyone around me, and other musings that helped me to become my stronger me.
Season 2 - The Mental Performance Series is dedicated to exploring the intricate relationship between mental performance, sports excellence, leadership, and personal growth. We’ll dive deep into the psychology behind peak performance in athletics, leadership roles, and everyday life. Whether you're an athlete looking to optimize your mental game on the field, a leader seeking to inspire and motivate your team, or an individual striving for personal growth and success, this series provides practical tips, actionable strategies, and inspiring stories to help you unlock your full potential and become your stronger you.
Season 3 - The Science of Mental Performance Series explores the science behind mental performance—how the mind learns, adapts, and performs under pressure. Grounded in sport psychology, neuroscience, and human development, this season translates research into practical tools that athletes, coaches, parents, and performers can use every day. The focus moves beyond motivation to intentional, evidence-based training of the mind to support consistent performance and growth.
