This week on the Way of Champions Podcast, we have a discussion with Lindsey Wilson from Positive Performance Training about the importance of the mental game for athletes of all ages. Lindsey works with athletes and coaches to unlock player and team potential through mental performance training. As an athlete, Lindsey had the privilege to play on many successful teams and collect an impressive athletic resume along the way. As a mental training coach, Lindsey has developed mental performance training tools and techniques for universities, teams, and organizations across the globe.   Highlights from the Podcast: Min 06: Why Lindsey starting a mental coaching business Min 13: Why Being called "Relentless” was important to Lindsey  Min 17: Playing professional, or being liked? Min 21: Recognizing the shift towards accepting mental training in sports Min 24: What Lindsey teaches for mental training (and how to get coaches to “buy in”  Min 31: What to say to a an athlete that just failed? Min 43: How do coaches recognize when a problem is a mental health issue, not a "optimizing performance" issue Min 50: The power of visualization Min 59: Learn to be a mindset coach   As the Co-Founder and Product/Program guru for Positive Performance, founded in 2008, Lindsey felt a strong call to help other athletes optimize their mindset and fulfill their potential. Today, the Positive Performance team provides athletes and teams with high-quality, easy-to-digest, complete mental training programs, as well as resources for coaches, parents, and athletes to help them maximize their potential.   Resources Mentioned “Is there a difference between Coaching Girls and Coaching Boys?” with Dr. Kristen Dieffenbach [podcast] 7 Steps for developing tougher, resilient, more focused athletes [Link] Mindset [book] by Carol Dweck What Made Maddy Run: The Secret Struggles and Tragic Death of an All-American Teen [book] by Kate Fagan Honoring the life of Penn student-athlete Madison Holleran and continuing to 'Talk for Maddy’ [article] by Kate Fagan Everyone Is Going Through Something [article] by Kevin Love via The Players Tribune Resources for Coaches: positiveperformancetraining.com   Some of Lindsey’s accolades include two Big 12 Women’s Basketball Conference Tournament Championships while at Iowa State, won a regular season Championship, and made it to the Sweet Sixteen twice.

Lindsey was drafted by the WNBA Connecticut Sun, and played professionally in Europe and the Middle East for 8 years.

Show Summary In this episode we’re talking with Kate Fagan, author of the book, What Made Maddy Run: The Secret Struggles and Tragic Death of an All-American Teen. We unpack the themes of perfectionism, the effects of social media on our brains, difficult transitions, and mental health. And we explore how healthy is driving satisfaction from activities and engagement not dependent on outside validation. Detailed show notes & resources available at realfoodwholelife.com/feelgoodeffect   Key Takeaways Madison Holleran’s story. Unpacking the themes of perfectionism, the effects of social media on our brains, difficult transitions, and mental health. How we seem to need one box for everything and how that can be problematic in talking about mental health. How filters played a role in Maddy’s life, and how they may be playing a role in all of our lives. How much photographic information we are consuming and the possible impact on our brains. The inability to see that everyone else’s social feeds were filtered, too. The problem with filtering in and filtering out. Social isolation and social media. The difference between connectivity and true social connection. The ways that the digital medium can cloud a real emotional state. Real conversations are messy and lack control vs. digital interactions. Connecting one human to another is asking follow up questions and staying in the relationship through the hard questions. If you think you are alone in your feelings it may be difficult to share your experience and ask for help. The transition to college and the challenges this experience can bring. “I know I’m supposed to feel like the lucky chosen few, but all I feel is overwhelm.” This can be a really difficult mental battle. The risk of “I should be feeling.” Struggle is not weakness. “When the hurdle you are supposed to clear is actually a brick wall, you’re not going to get to the other side, you’re going to actually hurt yourself in trying to push through.” The problem with perfectionism. “Notice how close perfection is to despair.” Why checking boxes and achieving will never be enough when it’s in the absence of true joy, knowing who you are and what makes you happy. “I’ve been at the bottom and I’ve been at the top and I know I won’t find peace in either.” -Aaron Rogers Finding joy and peace with things that have nothing to do with external validation. Healthy is driving a majority percentage of satisfaction from activities and engagement not dependent on outside validation.

Tonight's guest is Kate Fagan an author and ESPN reporter; she's the author of an important book for teen athletes and students -- a must read!  "What Made Maddy Run: The Secret Struggles and Tragic Death of an All-American Teen."   An emotional and poignant interview! HWTP's boxing analyst Mo Parke breaks down the Mayweather/McGregor fight.  

Kate Fagan is a columnist and feature writer for ESPN. Her latest book is What Made Maddy Run: The Secret Struggles and Tragic Death of an All-American Teen. “When I was professionally closeted, I was kind of bitter. I didn’t have a ton of empathy. And I don’t think I always asked the right question, because I wouldn’t ask people questions that I wouldn’t want to be asked…I had walls up. I wouldn’t even allow myself to be vulnerable in my writing. Because the whole point of my existence at that time was to circumvent any moment that could create vulnerability in a way that would frighten me. And I think you could that see in my writing.” Thanks to MailChimp and HelloFresh for sponsoring this week's episode. @katefagan3 bykatefagan.com [00:00] Stoner [00:45] Fagan’s Archive at ESPN [00:45] Around the Horn [01:00] What Made Maddy Run: The Secret Struggles and Tragic Death of an All-American Teen (Little, Brown and Company • 2017) [01:15] "Split Image" (ESPN • May 2015) [06:30] The Reappearing Act: Coming Out as Gay on a College Basketball Team Led by Born-Again Christians (Skyhorse Publishing • 2014) [07:45] "Storybook Ending Trailing Tennessee Late, Unbeaten Connecticut Got Into Gear In Time To Conclude a Charmed Season" (Austin Murphy • Sports Illustrated • Apr 1995) [16:00] Fagan’s Archive at Ellensburg Daily Record [16:30] Fagan’s Archive at The Post Star [16:45] Fagan’s Archive at The Philadelphia Inquirer [22:00] Deep Sixer Blog [37:45] Madison Holleran’s Instagram [44:15] Outside the Lines [44:15] First Take
