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.

When Confidence Breaks
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Confidence loss isn’t a failure — it’s a human response.
In this episode, Coach Nassim closes the Confidence & Self-Belief mini-series by exploring what happens when confidence breaks due to injury, role change, deselection, or prolonged struggle. Drawing from injury psychology, attribution theory, and resilience research, the episode explains why confidence disruption is common, how belief erodes, and what actually supports recovery.
Listeners will learn why confidence loss is often about lost certainty rather than lost ability, how interpretation shapes recovery, and why confidence is rebuilt through small, repeated mastery experiences — not forced positivity or reassurance.
This episode helps athletes, coaches, and parents understand confidence breakdown accurately and respond with patience, structure, and intention.
As Season 3 continues, upcoming conversations with coaches and former athletes will explore these themes in real-world contexts, setting the stage for the next mini-series: Pressure, Stress, and Nerves.
