You can feel who to kinda shut down to.

It is a, it's actually a beautiful thing, and the, the contagious impact of it.

So not only did...

And I have, I'm really fortunate to have some amazing mentors and coaches and parents and models in my life who have definitely transferred their energy into me, but then for me to know, like so you just said, you know, impacting young people.

I used to be a professor.

Um- And it, uh, obviously a lot of athletes took my sports psychology course, but how cool is it for them to come up to me after the undergrad or the graduate course and say, "This is what I wanna do now"? Or just, um, on Monday, but just yesterday I was emailing with a high schooler.

She found me online and she said, "I'm really focused on either sport management or sport psychology.

That's the crazy part.

So in the psychological world, how do we bring that into focus for an athlete?

Yeah.

You know, what I heard you saying is that this athlete's engaging in some distorted thinking.

irrational thoughts and one is you know where we start to label ourselves like it's it's like polarizing you're either strong or you're weak right And there was nothing in between, right? So like, I'm weak.

And then you helped her dispute that and refute that because you showed her the evidence that, well, basically says that that's not the whole story.

The story is that you're stronger than you were when we first started.

So it's not about...

That's where we start.
