FEAR TO FIERCE
Mental Toughness Coaching for athletes and their parents. Handle the storms sport always brings.
One month is all it takes.
If you want to be coached by a 2X Olympian, you’re in the right place.
Is this your athlete:
-
Not living up to their potential
-
Lack of confidence
-
Playing it safe
-
Not being aggressive
-
Nerves negatively affecting performance
-
Hiding in big moments

Easily discouraged

I help athletes build a toolkit to solve these problems. We dig down and get to the root of the problem by addressing thoughts and feelings that hold an athlete’s mind hostage, causing them to underperform.

Fear to FIERCE helps athletes build a Mental Toughness Toolkit to make sense of what's going on in their head, and more importantly their heart.
I will give them a flashlight so they stop fumbling around in the dark. They will become the boss of their thoughts, and develop emotional intelligence and self-awareness. They will stop underperforming and start reaching their potential.
Results will be immediate.

"Shawnee taught me how to deal with my negative feelings, understand I can be brave and afraid at the same time, and how to deal with pressure. She also helped me understand the difference between goals and values and why it matters.

"After working with Shawnee, my boys figured out how to get into BEAST MODE. She also gave us a vocabulary to improve our conversations and figure out how to solve problems rather than argue about them."

Inside Every Athlete is a Better One
Let me help you shine a light on the better one.
​
I’m not a mindset coach, I'm not a sports psychologist. I don’t teach visualization or goal setting, although I’m a fan of both.
​
I help athletes figure out what's going on in their head, and why it's causing nerves, self-doubt and lack of confidence.
​
To understand this dilemma, we must first do heart work. Why? Because that’s where the truth is; the truth will set you free. And the truth is, Mental Toughness is NOT about getting rid of our negative feelings. When something matters to us, when it’s important, it’s normal to have these feelings.
​
Mental Toughness is about managing ALL thoughts, feelings and emotions that sport brings. I help athletes build a toolkit to manage what's going on in their head AND their heart.
​
Once they have a toolkit, they are ready to face the storms that inevitably arise in the pursuit of goals and dreams.
Change doesn’t take time, it takes courageous action.
This is a journey that will change your athletes life forever. Yours too.
IS THIS YOUR ATHLETE?
They want to be selected to their dream team, they want to be confident, be noticed by scouts and earn a scholarship, they want to confidently step into the competitive arena, kick butt, and take no prisoners!
​
To honour their goals, they have done more training, signed up for extra skill development, improved their strength and fitness, and spent time reviewing video.
But something is still missing.
​
They’re holding back and playing it safe. In big moments they hide rather than shine. They aren’t taking risks and trying new things. They feel nervous and anxious. They worry that someone else will be selected instead of them, someone else will get that scholarship, and they continue to underperform.
PARENTS, IS THIS YOU?
You feel everything your athlete feels. You're right there with them as they journey toward their goals. They dream about it and so do you.
​To help them achieve their goals, you have done more; signed them up for more sessions, driven them to more practices, hired an expert coach to give them more skills, and sat in the stands (even when it’s hot, cold, rainy, sunny, exciting, boring) to give them more support.
​But you can feel your athlete is still missing something.
​You are frustrated with their progress. They don’t listen to your advice. They block you out in the car ride home. Conversations often end up in arguments. And sometimes you feel like giving up.
THAT WAS MY JOURNEY TOO
I understand this dilemma.
As an elite athlete, I thought the answer was more; more training, more practicing, more skill sessions, and more workouts. Anything to overcome the fear of being left behind.
​But no matter how hard I chased my dreams, I could never run away from the fear that constantly followed and found me.
Fear that I wasn’t good enough, fear that others would pass me, fear that I would be overlooked by coaches, evaluators, and recruiters
Those fears always caused me to underperform.
Then, as an elite coach, I watched high school, college, National, and Olympic athletes do more than was required; and it still wasn't enough.
It’s allowed me to see that athletes and parents aren’t just looking for help. They are looking for the RIGHT help to solve the RIGHT problem.
Look, this isn’t just a game your athlete is playing; it’s much bigger and the stakes are high. You and your athlete have invested time, money, and sweat equity.
But here’s the kicker; so has everyone else.
The last time I checked, most athletes do extra skill sessions, put more time in the weight room, hire an expert skill coach, and watch videos. And their parents do more than is expected to support the journey.
​
Talent and physical ability soon level out. The podium gets narrower, not wider, and many athletes get left behind. There simply isn’t room for everyone on the dream team, there simply aren't enough scholarships for everyone.
So where will you and your athlete find an edge?
Right HERE with ME. That’s your edge.
​
When it's "go time" you can't hide from yourself.
Heart work is required.
How can your athlete expect to show up on the biggest stage, the biggest competition of their life, with everyone watching, unless they have looked inside? Stop hiding!
How can they expect to win on the court, rink, field, snow, or pool unless they have done heart work? Start looking inside!
Heart work is simple but not easy. It requires self-awareness and emotional intelligence; two things that sport NEVER talk about.
This isn’t just a game. It’s the game of life and we use sport as the context.
So go ahead and encourage your athlete to continue visualizing and setting goals.
​
And if your athlete wants the best shot at standing on the podium, my coaching, where I tap into their heart, is your secret sauce. My secret sauce is unlike anything you have ever tasted.
The podium awaits.
​
And if you're like me, you understand the most important podium is the Podium of Life.
Come along with me on a journey that will change your athlete's life (and yours) forever.
"We chose Fear to FIERCE because our son was preparing for a big tryout and we could see the nerves building. He needed help managing his emotions. My husband and I also gained a new vocabulary and now our words help rather than hinder."
- CATHY, SPORT MOM

Your athlete didn't perform well, and you want to give advice

You’re in the car on the way home, and your athlete is shutting you out

Your athlete is feeling the pressure and you don't know how to relieve it

Engage in the group chat?
-
Engage in weekly Zoom calls?
