Have you ever ignored your intuition, only to regret it?A big part of being able to let your gut feeling guide you during stressful situations is to have a cool head and remain calm. X Games freestyle skiing gold medallist Kelly Sildaru is no stranger to the pressures that come with competitions, and she's learned to not only override her stress response, but also clear her head to allow for a rational approach to dangerous situations.The Estonian skier can follow her gut feeling and make intuitively sound decisions that are not based on external or internal pressure. Of course, she has experience of what happens when she hasn't done this, so can relate all too well to the importance of letting your intuition dictate your response to fear.Listen to this UNCUT episode to hear how Kelly does it.Do you have any questions, concerns and/or feedback?

What happens when we have to say goodbye to something that’s been all we’ve ever known? Change can be good, but learning to let go of something familiar – whether that’s a job, a hobby or a way of life – can be difficult to navigate.As Andrea Petković knows full well, moving on from her life in professional tennis came with significant challenges, including a loss of identity and the need to find a new passion to fill the void.Professional athletes are not the only individuals to face this challenge. It’s something that eventually everyone will encounter, whether this is transitioning from school to work life, starting a different job or stopping work altogether.In a very honest chat with host Cédric, Andrea talks about how she went through a period of lying to herself before retiring from her professional tennis career in 2022. She also opens up about the grief she had to deal with, and how she learned to take control of the circumstances.Do you have feedback for us, or simply just want to chat?

Outside of the more common mental and physical techniques athletes use to win, there is one lesser known tactic that many athletes deploy – consciously and unconsciously – to gain an edge on their opponent.Using body language to your advantage is not unheard of, but how do you actually use it in competition? Tennis ace Elena Rybakina uses non-verbal communication on the court to not only control her emotions but also the game. Even if it's not going so well on Elena's side of the court, all the opponent sees is a composed masterpiece of total control. Hosts Cèdric and York explain how using body language also has a positive impact on yourself. By practising simple posture exercises, you can promote and build confident body language that has a subtle yet extensive impact on yourself and your environment.

"The fear is always there but it depends how much you tune into it and how much you listen to it.”Swedish mountain biker Emil Johansson might be the most successful slopestyle rider in the history of his sport but, as he reveals in this episode of Mind Set Win, fear is still an emotion he experiences every time he puts his helmet on. To launch his bike off staggering jumps and perform innovative tricks, the three-time Triple Crown of Slopestyle winner explains how trusting in his ability and not second guessing his decisions are the foundation of his winning mindset and the key to his dominance on the track. Hosts Cédric and York explore how Emil is able to think rationally in key moments and provide a step-by-step plan to help us all train to become more courageous in daily life. The exercise involves frequently putting yourself in uncomfortable situations and challenging yourself to be rational in trying to understand where your fear is coming from and why you’re feeling it. Regardless, when being your own coach, don’t be disheartened by failure because, as Emil says, you build your courage and self-belief through trial and error.

“Whatever your why is or whatever helps you stay locked in, don’t let it give you anxiety, that’s negative energy.” All the way back in Season 1 Episode 20, coach to the elite stars of the NBA Chris Matthews aka Lethal Shooter shared a touching account of how learning to compartmentalise helped him harness his emotions to positive effect.

"It's important for the mind and body to be able to rest and have some time for yourself." While the idea that you need to stay active and consistently push your limits to achieve your goals might sound correct, during this episode of Mind Set Win, we learn how recovery is also key to our satisfaction levels. NBA All-Star Pascal Siakam knows a thing or two about winning and how crucial finding a balance between recovery and training is. In this interview, Pascal talks about life in the relentless NBA, what it takes to stay at the top and play almost every single night, and Toronto Raptors’ 2019 Championship triumph. In a bid to understand how to avoid mental overload, hosting duo Cédric and York take a look at the science behind how beta brainwaves stimulate your brain and alpha brainwaves help it relax and recharge. They then look at what daily activities we can do that focus on enhancing alpha waves and reducing the mental load on our brain. This includes things like reading, cooking, talking to your favourite people, listening to music or a podcast, yoga or meditation. Have a listen and see if one of the activities might work for you!

"I'm an athlete who goes all in. For me this is the best tactic."Back in Season 2 Episode 4 we learned how alpine skier Marco Odermatt uses a visualisation technique to ground himself and zone in before he takes the starting gate. It’s a process that allows the reigning Olympic and World Champion to reach top speed under pressure, and often in challenging weather conditions that put additional strain on his body and mind.In this UNCUT episode featuring the extended interview, Marco further shares how his anchor lays the groundwork for him to be able to react positively to the many unpredictable situations that can arise on the mountain.If you want to hear Cédric and York break down the role of mental stimulation and offer some tips to help us all discover our own anchor, listen back to S2 E4 now.

“I was scared to be nervous. I was ashamed of those feelings going around in my head.”While often your physical performance is seemingly the most apparent aspect of your functioning, the mental side is not to be underestimated, especially when it comes to the influence this has on your ability to achieve your goals. Dutch speed skater Kjeld Nuis has been on both sides of the coin and experienced what a difference mental fitness makes when it comes to winning. In this episode Kjeld recalls the career crossroads that inspired him to include mental training into his routine and reflects on the positive influence it had on his global success.Not everyone aims to break a world record, but this ability of recognising and accepting emotions is also hugely beneficial in everyday life as well. Hosts Cèdric and York approach this topic with a clear and simple exercise – the MAC method. This stands for Mindfulness – Acceptance – Commitment. The first step is to become mindful of your emotions. Try to identify and label the emotions you're feeling – an easier task than it sounds!Secondly, accept that this is the emotion you’re feeling at this moment. Ask yourself where that emotion came from and why.Finally, committing to these emotions means not being ashamed of feeling them but rather sharing your experience with people you trust.Lastly, remember that being able to identify and understand an emotion you’re feeling in a particular situation is already the biggest step towards utilising it to positive effect.What do you think?

How many times have you tried to do something over and over again, without any tangible success? Naturally, the key here is to continue trying, but this requires mental toughness, a skill that needs cultivating. Elite Latvian skater Madars Apse is not only a pro at kickflips and Frontside 360s, but also at remaining mentally tough during challenging times, both equally important components to achieving consistent success. In Madars’ world, where the streets are his playground and offer an endless source of creativity, he knows he’ll need to stay resilient to land tricks that could be days or weeks in the making. Cédric and York lean into this theme and apply it to our everyday lives by keeping in mind that “life happens”, and sometimes you will not be able to stick to a plan. York identifies three key factors that are key to developing our mental toughness:Internal motivation: the most important component. Remind yourself why you started the process in the first place. This motivation should be the origin and drive to continue your journey.External rewards: this may manifest itself in many ways, but should regardless not be the main motivating factor.Social support: this type of support may aid your journey in the form of recognition and encouragement.Lastly, always remember that trying to reach an unattainable goal or following someone else’s schedule is not realistic, be kind to yourself – trying counts just as much!What do you think?
