About Rhodie | High-Performance mindset coach
"The competitive advantage at the highest level is overwhelmingly mental, not physical."
Elite Minds, Dr. Stan Beecham
Training the mind to be as strong and agile as your physical fitness is essential for high performance. Athletes spend countless hours training their physical fitness, but often disregard the mental training that is necessary for unlocking their full potential.
In preparing for anything, there is physical and mental preparation. If one is not intentional about the process of how to train your mind as well as the body, an important part of the outcome is left to chance. Implementing evidence-based mental training practices enables you to step onto the field with unshakable confidence, dialed-in focus, and the mental toughness to handle even the high pressure challenges with a calm and clear mind and body.
I'm inspired by high performers. They achieve greatness and show us what is possible. I seek to learn from those at the top of their game every day. My work as a coach reminds me that we are all capable of remarkable feats - it just requires mental training. Just as we can transform our bodies through physical exercises to gain strength, so too can we transform our minds through consistent exercises that challenge our mindset and limiting beliefs and build our vision and confidence. I'm on a mission to help athletes and those seeking high performance to unlock their highest potential through physical and mental fitness.
I live in Westport, CT with my husband. We have three exceptional sons and two energetic dogs.
