Today we talked about why there are no excuses if you really want to level up, with players flying into our London and Miami camps from the US, Canada, India, UAE, Ireland, Sweden, South Africa and more. We shared what happens when players come back for a second camp and why the sooner you put yourself in that environment, the quicker you improve. On the live we brought viewers on stage for 1-to-1 chats about finding your best position, fixing decision making, bouncing back from injuries like Achilles tendinitis and hamstring problems, and even heard from a Nigerian academy owner and a US sports nutritionist about recovery, creatine and playing multiple games a week! We also broke down Harry Kane and Chicharito as perfect models for strikers to study, and highlighted Callum as an example of consistency, mindset and preparation paying off. If you want real talk about mentality, pathways, camps and what it actually takes to move forward, this session is for you.

Bundesliga Matchday 14 produced late drama, red cards, and decisive moments at both ends of the table.Bayern Munich were held to a 2–2 draw at home by bottom club Mainz, with Harry Kane's late penalty rescuing a point as new coach Urs Fischer oversaw an impressive and resilient performance from his side. Borussia Dortmund dropped points in Freiburg after a Jobe Bellingham red card shifted the momentum, while Stuttgart responded emphatically to last week's heavy defeat with a dominant 4–0 away win at Werder Bremen.Elsewhere, Bayer Leverkusen steadied themselves with a derby win over Cologne, Eintracht Frankfurt edged Augsburg with VAR playing a key role, and St. Pauli claimed a crucial relegation six-pointer against Heidenheim despite playing the second half with ten men. Wolfsburg stunned Borussia Mönchengladbach, Hoffenheim impressed again at home, and Union Berlin claimed a big win over RB Leipzig.

In this special episode, Alex Whitton and Alex Swallow take the reins to interview Robbie about the release of his new book, The Power to Choose: Finding Calm and Connection in a Complex World.What unfolds is a warm, honest and surprisingly vulnerable exploration of choice, mindset, relationships, and the inner work that helps us meet complexity with more skill and less fear.Across the conversation, Robbie shares the nine-year journey behind the book - from a powerful coaching question asked by Joel Monk in 2016 through to the resistance, the rewrites, and the emotional cost of releasing something deeply personal into the world.Together, the three of them explore themes at the heart of both the book and coaching itself.In this episode they explore:Why in almost every moment, there's more choice available than we think.The idea of the Higher Self - and why we all have moments where we forget it.How curiosity becomes an antidote to reactivity and contraction.What really happens when we assume others are doing their best.Why connection and calm matter so much in a complex world.How writing a book becomes its own developmental journey.The castle metaphor for working with shadow parts of ourselves.The stories that shape us - and the ones we get to rewrite.Why none of this work is ever really finished.Robbie also shares two stories that bring these ideas to life in very human ways: a tense exchange with a neighbour, and a moment on a crowded train that turned into a masterclass in choosing calm rather than escalating conflict.This episode is thoughtful, grounded and full of practical wisdom - for coaches, and for anyone navigating the complexity of modern life.For more information about Robbie, visit https://www.robbieswale.com/To buy The Power to Choose, visit http://geni.us/powertochooseFor more information about Alex Whitton, visit http://www.exploregrowbe.com/For more information about Alex Swallow, visit https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexswallow/Read more about The Coach's Journey at www.thecoachsjourney.com.Get Robbie's ebook for coaches, An Introduction to The Coach's Journey Flywheel at https://www.thecoachsjourney.com/the-coaching-business-flywheelMusic by My Good Man William: listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/4KmeQUcTbeE31uFynHQLQgTo support the Coach's Journey, visit www.patreon.com/thecoachsjourney and to join the Coach's Journey Community visit www.thecoachsjourney.com/community.

We break down a packed weekend across the soccer world:
In this milestone episode #300 of the Demystifying Mental Toughness Podcast, David Charlton is joined by former Newcastle United defender and current Assistant Loans Manager Peter Ramage. In the second part of our conversation Peter shares powerful insights into what truly drives progression and resilience in young footballers. Peter discusses the importance of personal responsibility in career development highlighting how top performers take ownership of their learning, habits, and mindset. Through examples such as golfer Matthew Fitzpatrick and Harry Kane, he explains why success is never defined solely by minutes played, but by growth, adaptation, and the ability to fight for a place. A major theme throughout the conversation is the redefinition of success on loan spells. Peter emphasises that adversity, periods of not playing, dealing with pressure, or competing for a spot is often the very challenge that shapes long-term success. He also explores the dangers of external hype, the importance of staying grounded, and the value of breaking performance down into controllable actions. Listeners gain a behind-the-scenes look at loan player support, including emotional wellbeing, communication, and the powerful role of peer-to-peer mentoring. Peter also reinforces that speaking up and asking for help is not weakness, it's a critical part of thriving in football. >> Key Takeaways Success Isn't Linear: Loan spells and tough periods are vital learning experiences, not signs of failure. Take Responsibility: Growth accelerates when players own their development, behaviours, and mindset. Stay Grounded & Speak Up: Managing hype, living in the present, and asking for support are essential parts of sustaining performance.
