Her body was ready. Her mind wasn't. And no one had given her the tools to bridge that gap.

In this episode, I'm taking you behind the scenes of a recent session I had with a professional basketball player coming back from an ACL injury. Cleared by her trainer and full speed into practice, she was still carrying a heavy load of fear and self-doubt.

You’ll learn step-by-step how I coached her through it, including the one phrase that can change everything for an injured athlete, an exercise that helps you discover what they need, and how to create a customized guided visualization for every client.

Topics discussed:

The mental challenges of returning to play after an injury
Conscious vs. subconscious brain
How to discover what your athlete really needs
How to turn conversations into a guided visualization
Closing the session and next steps
The most important thing that injured athletes need to hear
