X Factor Level Up Your Mental Game
One of the Biggest Things Holding You Back
What’s really holding athletes back from reaching their full potential? Spoiler alert — it’s not a lack of talent or effort. It’s fear.
Fear of failure. Fear of looking bad. Fear of not being perfect.
In this episode, we dig into one of the biggest mental performance barriers athletes face: the fear of making mistakes. You’ll learn why avoiding failure is actually the thing slowing you down, and how embracing discomfort, risk, and imperfection is the real key to growth.
Whether you’re an athlete, coach, or competitor of any kind, this is your reminder that greatness isn’t about being flawless — it’s about how you respond when things don’t go your way.
You’ll walk away with a new mindset: → Why mistakes are your greatest teacher
→ How to shift from fear to curiosity
→ What the best in the world do differently
→ And how failing fast leads to faster growth
If you want to level up — mentally, physically, and emotionally — it starts by stepping into the uncomfortable. Because champions aren’t built by avoiding failure… they’re built by learning from it.
Fail fast. Learn fast. Let’s grow.
