When stepping up for a penalty kick or shootout attempt, it’s not difficult to imagine why many athletes panic and begin to feel their mind race.
How often do you approach this moment with calm confidence? If you’re like most athletes, it’s probably not often.
Luckily, there are methods to consistently reach this state through mental skills, no matter how big the moment is.
Joining me today is Justine Jones, who grew up in Boise, Idaho before moving to Salt Lake City where she attended Westminster College while playing for the Women's Soccer team.
She received her BS in Psychology and MS in Sport and Performance Psychology. Currently, she works closely with athletes, professionals, and individuals from all walks of life to enhance their mental agility, resilience, and focus.
Using evidence-based strategies, personalized coaching, and practical techniques, she empowers individuals to overcome challenges, optimize their performance, and cultivate a winning mindset.
Her ultimate goal is to equip clients with the necessary skills to excel, creating a lasting impact on their chosen pursuits as well as all aspects of their lives.
