What does it really take to perform on the world stage?
In this episode of The Vancrux Podcast, I’m joined by Dr. Peter Haberl, former Senior Sport Psychologist for the United States Olympic Committee, who has worked across nine Olympic Games with medal-winning athletes and teams.
We break down why confidence and feelings are not the currency of elite performance, and why attention, awareness, and psychological flexibility matter far more under pressure.
We explore:
- Why “feeling ready” is overrated
- How elite performers train attention, not emotions
- What it means to stay present when everything is on the line
- How mindfulness and acceptance create world-class execution
- What separates those who perform under pressure from those who don’t
This is a grounded, no-nonsense conversation about performing when it matters most.
