Let's Play! The Mindset Coach for Athletes Podcast
Let’s Play! is a podcast for driven athletes who want to take their game to the next level.
Hosted by Mindset Coach Jojo Allred, this podcast focuses on building confidence, consistency, and trust under pressure. Each episode helps athletes understand what’s holding them back mentally and how to move through it so their hard work actually shows up in performance.
Jojo works closely with athletes through one-on-one coaching, getting to know who they are, how they think, and what they want from their sport. That same approach carries into this podcast — real conversations, real mindset shifts, and practical guidance athletes can use before, during, and after their season.
If you’re an athlete who loves your sport, works hard, and knows you’re capable of more, Let’s Play! is here to remind you that you’re not doing this alone.

Let's Play Under Pressure

Pressure is something every athlete experiences — before games, practices, tryouts, and big moments. But pressure doesn’t mean you’re weak, unprepared, or incapable. Most of the time, it means you care.
In this episode of Let’s Play, JoJo Allred breaks down what pressure actually is, how it shows up in the body and mind, and why athletes struggle more with the belief that they shouldn’t feel pressure than with pressure itself.
You’ll learn:
- Why pressure is normal and not a sign that something is wrong
- How pressure affects breathing, tension, and overthinking
- Why trying to “get rid of” pressure often makes it worse
- Three simple, practical tools athletes can use to manage pressure in real time:
- Naming the pressure instead of fighting it
- Slowing the body to calm the nervous system
- Focusing on one controllable action to feel grounded and safe
This episode is about learning how to play with pressure, not against it — and how shifting your mindset can turn pressure into focus, intensity, and growth instead of anxiety and self-doubt.
If you take one thing from this episode, remember this: pressure doesn’t mean you’re not capable. It usually means the moment matters to you.
