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.

Training Attention Like a Skill
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Can attention actually be trained?
In this episode of Becoming My Stronger Me, Coach Nassim explores the science behind focus, attention, and mental performance. Drawing from sport psychology, cognitive science, and performance research, we break down one of the biggest myths in sport—that focus is something athletes either have or don’t have.
You’ll learn why attention is a trainable skill, how elite performers recover from distraction, what Attentional Control Theory teaches us about pressure and anxiety, and why mindfulness is less about clearing your mind and more about redirecting your attention.
Whether you're an athlete looking to improve concentration, a coach helping players perform under pressure, or a parent supporting athletic development, this episode provides practical, research-backed insights into building stronger attentional skills.
