Shad shares personal stories, insights from athletes like Tanner Allen and Michael Jordan, and compelling neuroscience that proves what you say to yourself matters.

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
