Ignite your inner athlete and embrace growth to perform across your life.

Today brings with it ever-increasing pressures in the competitive professional world. Professionals are competitors looking to outperform. If others are ahead of you, it doesn’t mean they are ahead of you, it means you have growth and work to do! The absence of growth focus leads individuals to experience lower performance and increased burnout.

High-level athletes spend years honing unique tools that empower them to grow, develop resilience, and perform consistently. They understand that growth and consistency are the foundation of performance. Athletes do something each day, regardless of how small, they know what it takes to grow so they can consistently win. 

I am a mental performance coach who competed at international levels and uses those skills to help athletes and corporate professionals to move beyond goals and remove mental chaos and reframe how they interact with the environment around them. 

If you are looking for a keynote speaker and workshop facilitator who can inspire audiences to increase growth and enhance performance, then I am your choice. In Reframe Your Game: Ignite your inner athlete and embrace growth to perform across your life, I aim to show audiences tools of high-level sport can ignite the competitor within to enhance all aspects of self.

I combine academic and competitive experience to create opportunities for growth and performance. As a facilitator of corporate and team workshops that encourage moving beyond goals and as a performance coach for athletes aged twelve through Division I, I foster the development of strategies using the tools of high-level sport. As an athlete continuing to compete in the equestrian world, I constantly applies and hones the strategies and tools of sport. Her workshops encourage the discovery and development of corporate athletes through the application of high-level sport strategies that remove mental chaos helping people to reframe their experience.

Key Takeaways:

  1. What keeps you from growing and performing?
  2. How are you an athlete? Exploring the unique athlete inside of you.
  3. New pictures need new frames. Reframe your interactions with your environment.
  4. Liberating, not limiting-remove mental chaos through routines and mental chaos and thrive.
  5. No “why”, No Way. Know your “why”, so you know your way. Explore what drives you and makes you resilient and perform at a high level.

There is a lot here, so I would not want to include all of it, but this gives you a good idea of what it is I speak about and do workshops on in the corporate setting. The key takeaways above are the main ideas and what follows this is the more detailed information.

  • Avoiding failure (power of failure)
  • Not having purposeful intensity
  • Goals without action plans
  • Outcome focused, not growth focused goals
Athletes fall. Get thrown through a jump in the warm-up ring and hit all 4 rails on the way down to the ground. We cannot sit on the ground and wait for things to fix themselves. We cannot sit there and say, “that’s it! I am just not supposed to do this. I am horrible at this”. Our why/driver looks to see what we can learn from that moment. That one mistake/misjudgment. The athlete gets back up and places in the money!To be successful you cannot hold on to mistakes.Failures are not your final answers, your why gets you up out of the dirt and gets you in the money!Every member of a dealership and the associated processes is part of a team and communication, common “why”/driver/purpose, respect are tenets that make a healthy team with consistent performance at high levels. If you focus on each member as a corporate athlete who is trained and still training to have the best skills and strategies, focuses on growth not just on the outcome (yes we all want the win andthe sale), who views failure as a valuable answer that leads to increased sales-you are unstoppable. T-shirts, pizza lunches and little things matter, but incentives will not bind your employees
 
to you or your brand-growth, success, and being seen as anathlete do. Growth within the program and consistent success stitch the team together. You exist in a competitive state across all areas of life: personal, academic, professional, and hobbies/extracurriculars.Your characteristics can become your superpowers.Overachiever means you care and “this” mattersPerfectionist-you want to be the best (can also mean you are afraid to fail)You can and should be a better person, salesperson, leader, manager when you leave the office building or store than when you walked in the door that morning. Every day. (Have purpose, and be purposeful)

Your old experiences were not the final answer, just answers to specific questions. Do not let them determine your outcome. Grow from them and become more.Reframe how you see, interact/interpret the interactions with everyone and everything in your environment. I am nervous about closing this sale becomes I will close this deal because it matters to me or I love closing deals (that is also your why).An upset/disgruntled salesman or service tech can be viewed as this matters to them and their performance is not matching their expectations OR They love what they do and they want more. (need to work on this piece)

Routines and schedules are not the same thing!Routines are used to develop a proactive plan so that no one is reacting, they are ready and can readily access their well-trained skills and strategies. This only works for individuals who have been properly trained.Give examples of routines-they focus on what you should be doing, thinking, and feeling before, during, and after the presentation, sale, or meeting.

Reflection activity-sitting on a court/field and reflect on what you see, hear, feel, smell-use the professional setting for this reflection. You must know your why to find your way-these drivers are what pull you through failure, moments of self-doubt, and also get you amped up and ready. What drives you also gives you purposeful intensity-we all know the person and have been the person who works sunup to sundown, just grinding away, always going. Their intensity is INTENSE. This is great until itisn’t. Then you have burnout, lower performance, loss of buy-in. Purposeful intensity is honed and allows the individual to grow and achieve, not spin their wheels and after a few wins and more losses quit.“Why” is what develops resilience!
