About this listen

This week, we’re talking about something every serious athlete faces: mental bullies. You know the type — annoying trash talkers, flexers, and ego monsters who throw you off your rhythm without breaking any rules. I’ve been there too. Dealing with that now.


In this episode, we’re breaking down how to protect your peace, sharpen your mental game, and stay locked in on YOUR goals and dominate — no matter what distractions come your way. From research and expert-backed mindset tools to chill affirmations, I’m sharing what I've tried that actually works in competition and yup, life.


We talk about:

  • Why kindness is actually a competitive edge
  • What elite sports psychologists say about emotional control
  • How to reset your mind like a pro when the pressure’s on
  • Why “playing your game” is the best clap back there is


Whether you're on the shooting line or handling drama at school, this episode’s for anyone who wants to keep their focus and rise above the noise.
