Specifically, he covers: · How the recruiting process should be a fun “get-to” · The parallels of the college recruiting process and job searches · The coach's and assistant coach's perspective of the recruiting process · How coaches filter through the thousands of emails they get throughout the year, and how to separate yourself from the multitudes · Confirmation bias in coaches, how it affects the recruiting process, and what you can do to ensure you're on the right side of the bias · The importance of treating every coach with respect and never burning any bridges during the recruiting process · What should you do if a school you're not interested in is recruiting you? · How can you know if a coach is interested in you vs. just trying to get you to go to a camp? · Are camps worth the time and expense? · A reminder that the recruiting process should be a highlight of your life Resources and Links from this Episode · Don Williams HSEL Episode · Video of the Episode · HSEL YouTube Channel · HSEL Facebook Group · Warrior Way Soccer · Providence World website · Coaching the Bigger Game Program · Phil's email for DISC Training · Open: An Autobiography, by Andre Agassi

Tonight, we're getting to know Brandon NakashimaMeet Brandon Nakashima: The Rising Star of American TennisIf you follow tennis or have ever watched the U.S. Open or Wimbledon, you've probably heard about names like Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, or Coco Gauff. But there's another name you should know—Brandon Nakashima, one of the top young American men's tennis players on the ATP Tour.Brandon might not be a household name just yet, but he's been working his way up through the rankings with quiet confidence, strong discipline, and a game built on consistency and control. He's not flashy like some players, but that's part of what makes him so good—he lets his tennis speak for itself.Early Life and BackgroundBrandon Nakashima was born on August 3, 2001, in San Diego, California. He started playing tennis at the age of 3 with his grandfather and quickly fell in love with the sport. By the time he was in his early teens, Brandon was one of the top junior players in the country.He's of Japanese and Vietnamese heritage, and family is a big part of his life. His calm personality on court is often linked to the way he was raised—focused, respectful, and humble.Instead of turning professional right away, Brandon made a smart move: he played college tennis. In 2019, he spent one season at the University of Virginia, one of the best college tennis programs in the country. Even though he was only 17, he dominated in college matches. After just one season, he decided he was ready to go pro.Turning Pro and Climbing the RankingsBrandon turned professional in 2019 and didn't waste any time making an impact. In his first full year on tour, he reached an ATP final and started playing in Grand Slam tournaments. By 2022, he was ranked inside the Top 50 in the world, which is a big deal for a player in his early 20s.That same year, he made it to the fourth round of the U.S. Open, one of tennis's biggest events. He also won the Next Gen ATP Finals, a tournament that features the best players under 21. Previous winners include top stars like Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner, so winning that event showed just how high Brandon's ceiling could be.Playing StyleBrandon isn't the loudest or most emotional player on court, but he's one of the most focused. He's known for his steady baseline play, meaning he does really well in long rallies from the back of the court. He hits the ball cleanly, especially with his two-handed backhand, which is one of his best weapons.He doesn't rely on power alone. Instead, Brandon uses smart tactics, great footwork, and a calm mindset to outplay his opponents. His game is built for hard courts, but he's also improving on grass and clay—two very different and challenging surfaces.Recent Results and What's NextIn 2025, Brandon reached the third round of Wimbledon, defeating China's Yunchaokete Bu and fellow American Reilly Opelka before falling to Italy's Lorenzo Sonego. These wins reminded fans that he's still a strong competitor with the potential to go even further.Now ranked in the Top 80 (as of July 2025), Brandon is focusing on the North American hard-court season, including big tournaments like the Citi Open, Cincinnati Masters, and the U.S. Open.Why He MattersAmerican men's tennis has been looking for its next big star since the days of legends like Andre Agassi and Pete Sampras. While players like Taylor Fritz, Frances Tiafoe, and Ben Shelton are getting a lot of attention, Brandon Nakashima is part of that same group. He might be quieter and more low-key than some of his peers, but he's just as talented and just as hungry to succeed.If you're a fan of sports where hard work and mental strength matter just as much as physical ability, Brandon is a great player to follow. He represents a new generation of tennis players who combine skill with sportsmanship—and he's just getting started.

What if happiness wasn't just a fleeting feeling, but our natural state of being? In this powerful and heart-opening session, Sister Shivani, Brahma Kumaris Spiritual Teacher and host of “Happiness Unlimited,” shares a deeply transformative message from Tony and Sage Robbins' 2024 Date with Destiny stage in Abu Dhabi—a spiritual wake-up call to reclaim your inner power, master your thoughts, and become a radiant force of healing energy in the world. Through her wisdom, you'll discover that happiness is not just a personal pursuit—it's a karmic responsibility—and that we can raise our vibration moment by moment to not only transform ourselves, but to help heal the world. Sister Shivani explores the three pillars of personal power, with a special emphasis on the power to forgive and let go, and reveals how our thoughts, intentions, words, and behaviors ultimately shape our destiny. She breaks down what true karma means—and how to align it with love—while offering a powerful invitation to live happy and leave happy by mastering your inner world. Above all, she reminds us: no one outside of us has the power to disturb our peace—unless we give it away. This talk offers a clear, soulful understanding of how to create happiness from within, no matter what life brings.

Have you ever felt torn between who you are... and who you used to be? Inside all of us live competing identities—conflicting desires, beliefs, and values. True growth begins not by choosing one or the other, but by learning to honor and integrate them with compassion and clarity. In this powerful intervention from Date with Destiny 2024, Tony Robbins works with tech entrepreneur Josh—whose journey took him from washing dishes in college to building software used by hundreds of millions. He's achieved incredible success—and endured painful setbacks—but even with everything he's built, something feels off. The fire inside him has burned out. Josh has embraced the spiritual, laid-back “hippie” within—the side of him that no longer chases external wins. But that identity conflicts with the ambitious, relentless entrepreneur he used to be... and that internal battle has left him stuck. Tony helps Josh uncover how his unconscious mind has kept these parts of himself at odds—and how to bring them into alignment to unlock his full potential. Using tools like the Psychology of Human Needs and Collapse Anchors, Tony guides Josh to create a new story: one where he doesn't have to choose between sides but can rise as something greater. This isn't just one man's breakthrough—it's a reflection of the journey we all face. Because when we create harmony within, we awaken the power to become who we're truly meant to be. We hope this serves you—and we'd love to hear what insight you take away. *You can watch this intervention (and tons of powerful Tony Robbins content) on our official YouTube channel: youtube.com/@TonyRobbinsLive *Tony Robbins is a #1 New York Times best-selling author, entrepreneur, philanthropist, and the nation's #1 Life and Business Strategist.

A Load of BS: The Behavioural Science Podcast with Daniel Ross
This week on A Load of BS on Sport, Daniel Ross and Dan Biggar welcome former World Number 4 tennis player and two-time Grand Slam finalist, Todd Martin.In a refreshingly honest conversation, Todd opens up about the psychology of choking in high-pressure moments—a topic most elite athletes shy away from discussing. From his composed upbringing that shaped his mental approach to tennis, to standing across the net from legends like Boris Becker, Pete Sampras and Andre Agassi, Todd shares what it's like to be an "elite underdog"—so close to greatness, yet just missing the ultimate prize.We explore the mental battles of competing at the highest level, the weight of expectation when you're one point away from glory, and the often brutal reality of transitioning from professional sport. Todd reflects on his coaching experiences with Mardy Fish and Novak Djokovic, the subjective nature of greatness debates, and why success should be measured by personal growth rather than just trophies.This episode offers a rare glimpse into the mindset of someone who reached the pinnacle of their sport whilst navigating the fine margins between triumph and heartbreak—and what happens when the spotlight fades.Highlights Include:The psychology of choking and why athletes rarely admit to itGrowing up with composure as a core value and how it shaped his careerCompeting against tennis superstars and the mental challenges that bringsThe pressure of Grand Slam finals and critical match momentsCoaching elite players like Novak Djokovic and Marty FishTransitioning from professional sport and finding new identityThe greatest tennis player debate and why it's beautifully subjectiveLessons on defining success beyond statistics and scoresMemorable Quotes"It's rare to hear someone admit they choked.""I was born to two amazing parents.""Composure was a priority in my upbringing.""I was raised with calm, cool and collected.""I knew I was walking out with a superstar.""Winning the right points is crucial.""It's definitely a choke moment.""Champions come from within.""Only you know if you're good enough.""I was remarkably unprepared.""Success is doing the best you can."If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, leave us a review, and share it with your friends or anyone who loves sport and great stories.

“I take people as a story… I can see their higher self before they can.” – Carlos Salum Carlos grew up under Argentina's military dictatorship—surrounded by uncertainty, but also by entrepreneurs, poets, and principled people who knew how to thrive despite it. That tension didn't crush him. It sharpened his vision—so much so that, by adulthood, traditional paths like law & medicine felt like cages, not callings. So he did what most people won't: He bet on himself. On a handshake, he pitched a partnership to the world's top tennis coach. No credentials. No fancy title. Just conviction. Then he flew to Germany, crashed on a friend's couch, & hustled up a seven-city speaking tour with no internet, no safety net, & no backup plan. Eight months later, the world's biggest sports agency called him “Houdini” as he coached legends like Agassi, Seles, & Sampras. But it was never just about tennis. It was always about helping people live with alignment, intention, and impact. Today, he brings that same fire to business owners. Ready to align with something deeper?

Is your brain the secret key to spiritual development and happiness? In this live presentation recorded at Tony & Sage Robbins' 2024 Platinum Partners Happiness Event in Abu Dhabi, neuroscientist Andrew Newberg, M.D. explores “The Spiritual Brain: The Link Between Spirituality, Sexuality, and Happiness.” Drawing on cutting-edge fMRI and PET scans, Dr. Newberg defines exactly what a spiritual experience is and shows you where—and how—those moments light up your neural circuitry. You'll discover the core components that make these experiences so transformative and learn how repeated ritual practices reshape the brain over time. Along the way, he reveals the evolutionary roots of ritual and explains why religious and spiritual encounters have the power to change our views of reality, our relationships, our work—and even our deepest beliefs about God, science, and ourselves. Watch now to uncover the surprising ways your own brain is wired for transcendence—and how that wiring can lead you to a more fulfilled, happier life.
