I am honoured and thrilled to be joined today on the Unlocking your mind podcast by USA Heptathlete Chari Hawkins.
Chari is an incredibly exciting talent. Among her impressive accolades are: she is a five-time All American, she has won the Bronze model at the US indoor championships and before that, she became the outdoor British champion in 2018, which then lead her to represent the United States in the 2019 World championships, Chari has since been working towards realizing her dream and competing at the Tokyo Olympics.
During the course of the podcast, we discussed Chari’s journey from where it all began in her home state of Idaho. We discussed the power of mental training that Chari does to get the best out of herself and overcome performance anxiety which has been the biggest battle in her career to date.
We also discuss the power of affirmations, meditation, visualization, journaling, goal setting, and how we can overcome anxiety.
What I really like about Chari is she uses her Instagram to help others become the best versions of themselves, she is open and honest about the highs and lows in her career. She is a real role model, who is inspiring people daily.
