In episode #238 of the Glass and Out Podcast, we welcome good friend of TCS, Dr. Cassidy Preston. He is the Founder of CEP Mindset and co-host of the Beyond the X's and O's Podcast.
Dr. Preston recently released his book Mindset First, which touches on how coaches and athletes can break free from focusing on results, performing with confidence and rise to the occasion.
Listen as he shares how the "Screw It" mindset can help you let go, why confidence is a word he tries to stay away from, and why coaches should avoid being too judgmental with players.
