Mentoring has long been the missing piece in many athletes’ growth. This gap has left so many directionless, reinforcing stigmas, and keeping them from fulfilling their potential.
SHARED® with Coach O fills that gap with one-to-one mentoring sessions on the foundational area athletes lack support: Mental Toughness.
“Toughen up,” “just get through it,” and “you either have it, or you don’t” are outdated notions of toughness that miss the mark on development. Sports have a history of treating toughness as something other than a skill. But like every skill, it needs to be developed.
In SHARED® sessions, athletes learn how to develop mental toughness as a daily approach. They’ll gain clarity on the misalignment between aspirations and daily habits, and guidance on building resilience, confidence, and an edge in competition.
They’ll learn practical ways to lock in focus, regulate their emotions, and strive toward their goals under the pressure, adversity, and uncertainty that is to come.
Mental toughness is a foundational lifelong skill that sporting careers depend on, and SHARED® sessions champion this skill in athletes at all stages.
Notable Topics: Discipline, Resilience, Adversity, Consistency, Failure, Success, Bouncing-Back, Identity, Confidence, Humility, and Transitions.
In each SHARED® session, athletes work through customized discussions, exercises, and reflection points that are based on their outlook.
At the end of each session, athletes leave with a clear action plan to implement and build on for the following week.
With Coach O, athletes gain:
-Feedback and guidance
-An accountability partner
-An experienced perspective
-External support to tackle obstacles
Sessions are online, hourly, one-to-one, and interactive, transforming athletes one conversation at a time.
Every ceiling becomes a floor with SHARED® sessions.
As a parent, I understand what’s at stake here.
I know sports is inseparable from their identity and the impact it has on every part of their lives. I know the worry of keeping them on the right path as they navigate each WILD phase of their growth. I know sometimes it takes external support to land what you’ve been saying all along.
And I know the transformative difference mentoring makes in career outcomes and life directions.
This is why I do this work. To pay it forward, so athletes can thrive in all aspects of their career journey.
