Summary

This week I’m in the hot seat with one of the leading experts in mindset training. Dr. Michael Gervais is a high performance psychologist working in the trenches of high-stakes environments with some of the best in the world. His clients include world record holders, Olympians, internationally acclaimed artists, MVPs from every major sport and Fortune 100 CEOs. Dr. Gervais is also the co-founder of Compete to Create, an educational platform for mindset training.

Today I’m on his podcast Finding Mastery which unpacks & decodes each guest’s journey to mastery through mindset skills and practices. If you’ve been a listener for awhile, you’ll know this is one of my favorite topics and something I wholeheartedly credit to unlocking my best work.

In this episode:

How I learned to trust my intuition
Dr. Gervais aptly calls out two journeys to mastery: one of self, and one of craft. I share my perspective on how mastery of craft is a required step to mastering oneself
We’re taught that making mistakes is bad so we should avoid them. What we really should be taught is it’s not about avoiding mistakes, it’s about error recovery.
and much more…

Enjoy!
