About this listen
In Episode 19 of 'Coaching the Athletic Mind' podcast, hosted by Megan Weaver, the main topic is the distinction between confidence and self-confidence in sports. Megan then delves into the differences between confidence, which is task-specific, and self-confidence, which is a broader trust in one's abilities. Megan argues that self-confidence is essential for developing actual confidence in any skill. She shares personal anecdotes and examples, such as her experience coaching a travel softball team and her toddler Wesley learning to walk, to illustrate how self-confidence helps athletes and individuals learn from their mistakes and persevere. The episode emphasizes the importance of a growth mindset, resilience, and the positive influence of self-confidence on others. Megan concludes by encouraging listeners to embrace failure as a path to success and offers her coaching services for those interested in further developing their athletic mindset.
