Episode Overview

Dr. Stan Beecham is a world-renowned performance psychologist working with business leaders and Olympic athletes to help them optimize their minds.

While most people focus on training their physical bodies, we often think less about the mental component of the game.

When top athletes go head-to-head, equally matched in talent and experience, it’s the mental side that makes all the difference.

What separates the best from the rest is often their ability to be at the top of their mental game, moment after moment.

As Yogi Berra famously put it: “90% of the game is half mental.”

In this episode, we discuss how to take control of your mind to perform better on the spot.

Dr. Beecham shares his tips and tricks from years of experience training some of the top minds in the world.

Hope you enjoy!
