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.

Conversation with Dr. Kelly Flanagan
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of Becoming My Stronger Me, Coach Nassim is joined by Dr. Kelly Flanagan—psychologist, author, speaker, and former mindset coach—for a meaningful conversation about emotional regulation, identity, and responding thoughtfully under pressure.
Dr. Flanagan’s work challenges the idea that we need to fix or perfect ourselves to be worthy. Together, we explore how performance culture, achievement, and comparison can quietly shape self-worth—and what it looks like to slow down our reactions, build awareness, and choose more intentional responses in sport, parenting, leadership, and everyday life.
The conversation also centers on Dr. Flanagan’s newest book, The Road Less Triggered, which offers practical insights for navigating emotional triggers and cultivating healthier responses in moments that matter most.
This episode is especially relevant for:
• Athletes navigating pressure and identity
• Parents supporting youth through emotional moments
• Coaches and leaders shaping culture and connection
• Anyone working to respond rather than react
