Winning a World Series is one thing. Winning the battle in your own head is another.

Former MLB pitcher and World Series champion Todd Stottlemyre joins us for a powerful conversation about mental toughness, grief, forgiveness, and the mindset shifts that can change how you live and lead. He opens up about losing his younger brother, carrying years of guilt, and how unresolved pain turned into anger during his baseball career.

In this episode, we get into:

• How Todd learned to stop focusing on things he couldn’t control
• The sports psychology lessons that helped him break destructive patterns
• Simple breathing techniques to interrupt worry and emotional spirals
• Why focusing on the process builds confidence under pressure
• How mental toughness translates from professional sports to business leadership
• What grief, accountability, and forgiveness can teach us about personal growth

If you’re working on your mindset, leadership, or personal growth, Todd shares practical tools for handling pressure, letting go of the past, and moving forward with purpose.
