Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 178 | Author Amy Morin
Q: How can athletes prepare mentally before competing, not just during training?
Develop performance primers and pregame rituals that put the brain and body in the right state, calibrate energy levels, and use a simple power phrase to drown out negative thoughts.
Episode 178 | Author Amy Morin
Q: What should a coach or parent say to an athlete after a poor performance or failure in a big moment?
Start by asking what thoughts are going through their head and assess the evidence behind those thoughts, then help them reframe the situation and consider constructive next steps rather than offering immediate corrections.
Episode 178 | Author Amy Morin
Q: What is the biggest misconception that people think is mental strength, especially in sports, but it's really not?
The idea that you have to suffer to prove toughness is misguided; real strength often means knowing when to quit, rest, or take a break to protect long-term performance.
Episode 176 | Dr. Cindra Kamphoff
Q: Can you walk through the seven research-backed ways to grow confidence?
Yes. They include crafting your inner coach, clearing your past, clarifying your future, focusing on process goals, creating your identity, capturing wins, and composing your confidence-supporting team.
Episode 176 | Dr. Cindra Kamphoff
Q: I want to ask you about confidence right off the bat, because I coach track and field athletes. What is confidence in your estimation and what tools refine it?
Confidence is a fluctuating belief in your ability that you nurture through inner dialogue, clear goals, and small process-oriented actions. Tools include crafting an inner coach, letting go of past mistakes, clarifying your future, and building a five-person confidence dream team.
