Dr. Cassidy Preston discusses his background in hockey and how he became passionate about the mental game. He challenges the traditional approach of goal setting and emphasizes the importance of focusing on mindset and internal processes. He introduces the concept of the alter ego and explains how athletes can create a persona to help them show up as their best selves. He also addresses the issue of toxic coaching and provides strategies for athletes to navigate and overcome challenging environments. In this conversation, Dr. Cassidy Preston discusses the importance of mindset and resilience in sports and life. He emphasizes the need to focus on owning one's capabilities rather than seeking external validation. One exercise he recommends is the 'hundred reasons why you are great' exercise, which involves listing specific achievements, progress, and skills to build confidence and a positive self-image. Dr. Preston also shares advice on prioritizing who you want to be and how you want to show up, being unfazed and relentless, and not getting caught up in the question of worthiness.
