About this listen

In this episode, Denise Thomas sits down with Mark England, co-founder of Enlifted Coaching, to unpack the real meaning of “mindset,” not as a buzzword, but as the story you tell yourself.

A former MMA fighter turned educator, Mark shares how injuries and failure led him to discover transformational wordsmithing: the process of changing your internal dialogue to change your life. He walks through practical tools that anyone, especially coaches and athletes, can use to rewrite limiting stories, calm their nervous system, and reclaim control through language and breath.

This one’s part conversation, part masterclass. Grab a pen.

  • The link between words, breath, and awareness
  • How victim mentality is formed and how to dismantle it

  • Enlifted Coaching
  • Mark England’s TED Talk
  • Barbell Shrugged Podcast (Mark’s 2017 episode)
  • Best Hour of Their Day Coaching Program

Community Highlight
After two car accidents and a diagnosis of early-stage Parkinson’s, Becky Johnson refused to give up.

Just days after spine surgery, she walked into CrossFit Loco Ocho — neck brace and all — to do her version of Murph.

“Having a strong baseline of fitness prepares you for whatever life throws your way,” she says.

“This is the sickness-wellness-fitness continuum in action. I got a devastating diagnosis, but I already had the antidote.”
