028 - Mindset Help from a Collegiate Sports Psychotherapist - Nicole Adach - Health Movement Podcast

The Health Movement Podcast is where fitness meets mindset, and performance meets personal growth. Hosted by Derek and Tim, we explore the critical role of mental skills, confidence, self-talk, mindfulness, and emotional regulation in athletics and everyday life.

In this episode, Derek is joined by Nicole Adach, a collegiate sports psychotherapist, to discuss how athletes can train their minds just as intentionally as their bodies. They dive into the power of self-talk, journaling, goal-setting, and the RAIN technique for emotional regulation. Nicole shares her personal experiences with running as a tool for self-reflection and how embracing challenges leads to greater resilience and success.

Key topics include:
 ✔️ Mindset & Performance – How mental skills shape athletic and personal success
✔️ The Power of Self-Talk – Shifting from an inner critic to an inner coach
✔️ Mindfulness & Growth – Tools to stay present, embrace setbacks, and build confidence

🎙 Tune in for insights on unlocking potential, learning from failure, and taking control of your fitness journey—both physically and mentally.
