Becoming My Stronger Me
"Becoming My Stronger Me” is a podcast designed to help you become stronger in mind, body, and heart.
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.

Mental Energy and Flow State
What if peak performance wasn’t about working harder—but learning how to harness your mental energy?
In this episode, I explore the science of mental energy and its connection to achieving flow—the psychological state where focus, confidence, and performance come together effortlessly. Drawing from the latest 2025 research on professional athletes, I'll explain how mental energy predicts flow, and how athletes, coaches, and parents can intentionally train it.
Listeners will learn practical routines to build and sustain mental energy—pre-performance warm-ups, micro-resets during training, and reflection habits that enhance focus and resilience. Coaches will discover how to create flow-friendly environments that balance challenge and skill, and parents will gain tools to help young athletes recharge and manage their emotional energy beyond the field.
Whether preparing for competition, leading a team, or supporting an athlete, this episode offers a roadmap to train the mind like the body—and unlock consistent, high-level performance through the power of flow.
