In Episode 113 of High Performance Parenting, Greg and Jacquie Francis unpack the truth behind real confidence before competition.

It doesn’t come from hype.

It comes from preparation.

They discuss:

• How last year’s disappointments created motivation for growth
• Why injuries often come from lack of preparation
• The difference between looking good in practice and performing in competition
• How strategy and consistency beat flashy performance
• The importance of mental preparation before big moments
• Why fueling your body properly matters in long tryouts
