148. Lessons from the Locker Room with Brandon Doman

Every athlete has felt it—the quiet voice that says "I don't belong here." In this episode of the Especially for Athletes podcast, we tackle imposter syndrome head-on and explore the power of self-talk in building unshakable confidence. Shad shares personal stories, insights from athletes like Tanner Allen and Michael Jordan, and compelling neuroscience that proves what you say to yourself matters. Whether you're stepping into a bigger role, moving to a new level, or simply trying to believe you're good enough—this episode is for you. 💬 Highlight Moments: * A college coach's tough-love advice that shattered imposter syndrome. * Neuroscience behind why self-talk rewires your brain and boosts performance. * Quotes from Venus Williams, Nick Saban, and others on belief, confidence, and mindset. If you've ever questioned whether you're good enough to compete—this episode will remind you: You were invited for a reason. Now it's your turn to believe it. #### Especially for Athletes: • Website: https://e4a.org • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/EspeciallyForAthletes/ • X: https://x.com/E4Afamily • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/especiallyforathletes/ • YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmbWc7diAvstLMfjBL-bMMQ Join the conversation using #TheSportlightPodcast #### Credits: Hosted by Shad Martin & Dustin Smith Produced by Shad Martin and IMAGINATE STUDIO
