Skating Success: the Podcast

Lets poke some holes in the regular advice you get on 'getting into the zone' for competition.If, as a performer, you keep making it all about YOU, you're gonna have a really hard time being present in your performances.Competition doesn't have to feel like punishment. It can feel like a purposeful invitation to have the audience share in what you've created! Listen in if you need a FRESH perspective on how to mentally prepare for your next competition.And learn about how to have FUN even when you fail.... that means > The Unexpected Way 2 Guarantee Your Results!

Change and transformation is inevitable...What if we entered it intentionally?In this episode, I share some of my personal transformation stories & help you connect to the thing you MOST want to change in this current season.This doesn't mean it's easy - but we can do this together!!

Are you hard on yourself? Yeah... I get it! Sometimes the biggest challenges aren't the ones 'out there' but the ones that our own brains offer us. In this episode, I talk about how to interrupt that pattern of thoughts and give yourself credit for the effort you're putting in.Whether you struggle to be kind to yourself or just have moments where the perfectionist tendencies sneak in, this is just the conversation you need to 'Have Your Own Back'!

Getting overwhelmed in coaching? Me too...Here's an episode just for YOU! My gift to give you that simple acronym to come back to when it all feels like 'just too much'.C - CareO - OptimizeA - Athlete Centred AttidudeC - CreativityH - Habits This framework will bring you back to what matters and the feelings you were trying to generate by becoming a coach in the first place!

We ALL get off track... sidetracked...and outright down on the journey to completing our goals. It's actually normal! So if you've been feeling frustrated about your progress, this episode will help you reframe it and reconnect to why it matters and how to stick with it. Can't wait for you to listen in!

How are you telling your story?Ever stop to think about the lens through which you're seeing your past? If you're not aware, it could really taint your future.What about taking a little pause to reflect on how you tell that story of your past and embrace the 'HERO YOU' that you actually are as you share your Skating Story!

How Cool would it be to watch a movie that you produced? That's kinda the feeling when you get to step back and watch skaters perform the choreography that you've had the joy and privilege to create with them. Go one step further & become someone in the audience, instead of being the coach beside the boards, and truly feel the awesomeness of what performance can do!In our sport we have the opportunity to be part of one of the most sacred & important forms of being human: performance art.It transforms people and helps us all remember that we all need (and I would argue - CRAVE!) a little more imagination in our lives.

Ready to test your 'Shoulds'?The thing about Freedom is that it requires Responsibility.Many of us grew up in the era of 'this is the way the sport is' and now, with the current judging system being 21 years old, we're in the era of 'this is the way the sport should be'.But what if you want to choreograph something different; something uniquely yours? I can absolutely relate to that and if that sounds even a little like you, you're REALLY gonna resonate with this episode.

Yes, I do! This is the NEW era of Coaching... of Skating... even of Parenting Athletes.We're gonna create the new wave of holistic sport. This is where we collect ourselves & calm our nervous systems. Where we build our connections through competition, not just compete. How we develop ourselves through the sport instead of being bulldozed by it.You've GOT this! Joint the conversation & listen to this episode anytime you need a personal pick-me-up from me.

When I ask you this question.... what comes to mind? Attitude? Energy? Professionalism? It's a combo, right? For me, one of the keys is continuous evolution. Being willing to keep our own growth at the forefront along with asking the students in front of us to lead themselves. Want to go deeper with a Live Event?
