I help athletes make sense of what's going on in their head, cut through the noise, and unleash their inner tiger.

​

Increasing emotional intelligence helps you build a toolkit to show up with courage and confidence when it matters most. 

​

For this to happen, we must do heart work. Why? Because that's where the truth is, and the truth will set you free.  The truth is, Mental Toughness is NOT about getting rid of our negative feelings. Mental Toughness is about managing ALL thoughts, feelings and emotions. They are called feelings because we are supposed to feel them.  What a concept!

 

Building a toolkit helps manage what's going on in your head AND heart. It equips you to face and handle the storms that inevitably arise in the pursuit of your goals and dreams.

​

I work with athletes of all ages and sports, from novices to experts. And because it takes a village, I also work with parents, coaches, and leaders.

I work with athletes, parents, and coaches, as well as managers and leaders from all walks of life.

​

I help people shift from good to great and become the best version of themselves. I teach them how to Win From Within, so they show up with courage and confidence on the biggest day, the biggest stage of their life.

WINNING MATTERS 
 

Because winning matters in sport and business, I'm a corporate coach, leadership coach, life coach, and motivational speaker.

 

My experience inside the elite world of sport transfers directly to the boardroom, where success is talent-oriented and people-driven. After taking my workshops, teams and leaders are raising the bar. 

 

Inside every team
is a BETTER ONE.
Inside every leader
is a BETTER ONE.

Inside every teammate
is a BETTER ONE.

​

Do you work within an organization that could benefit with insight on how to raise the bar?
