AAG was born over a decade ago yet the funny thing is I never knew it until recently. It was a term I used to bring myself back down after a poor performance or loss in Ice Hockey to help remind me that there is another game. I can’t dwell on the past I need to focus on the NOW and how that will help the FUTURE.
Yet after retiring from the sport I loved, a lot of what made me mentally successful went out the window until one famous night.
I was highly stressed on this infamous day and my parenting tolerance had reached it’s peak, so without shouting I sent the boys to bed early before it had the chance to reach that point.
Only to come downstairs full of guilt and shame that I was not at my best and this is not what I wanted to be as a parent.
Then it hit me...
We get to go again tomorrow
How can I be better for myself and my loved ones because that’s how I used to do things in my sporting career
I would look for solutions not excuses and that is when it hit me that all the skills I learned playing sport can be used now in;
🧠 Parenting
🧠 Business
🧠 Self Improvement
And now I get the pleasure of not only sharing my story via this personal development podcast but other incredible current and retired athletes, where they get to share the highs and lows of sport
and most importantly how they use those learned skills in life away from the game
Because unfortunately in my sport we have lost a number of incredible people who have lost their identity after playing
and I wanted to remind you that you played a sport you don’t have to be the sport
which can help you thrive in whatever you desire in life away from the game
I am certain there is an episode for you
Here in this personal development podcast is where you will delve deep inside the mind of an athlete so they can share the highs and lows of sport but most importantly how they utilise those skills to thrive in life away from the game.
Our guests will be sharing insights from their sporting careers and where they are today because of them.
This will help you see the skills you’ve gained over your life and where you can use them to be successful today
You can always level up!
