061 | Growth Mindset Part 3: Breaking Free from Negative Self-Talk When Basketball Gets Hard

Knowing what a growth mindset is and actually living it are two very different things.

You'll learn how to recognize fixed mindset thinking, replace harmful self-talk with truth, and build the confidence and mental toughness needed to keep improving—even when basketball feels frustrating. If you've ever caught yourself thinking "I'm not good enough," "I don't belong," or "I can't," this episode will give you practical tools to change the way you think so you can stay committed to your goals and continue growing as both a player and a person. 📱Stay Connected Want more practical mindset tools to help your athlete build confidence, overcome self-doubt, and stay motivated through the ups and downs of basketball?
