Sports has always been a big part of my life and I've always wanted to be a champion.
After football was over, I wanted to know if I could continue to apply the "champion's mind" into other areas of my life. As I started to do the same rituals and mindset exercises while growing my business that I used to do in sports, I realized they were all as effective for me in that arena as well… and I loved that it was so similar!
I'm excited to dive into this topic as this is the juicy side of greatness.
