How To Turn Self-Doubt Into Your Superpower- The Mindset of Champions

"Whether you score zero or score 60, I'm going to love you no matter what. That is the most important thing you can say to a child." - Kobe Bryant

In this powerful masterclass, I sit down with three extraordinary athletes who have each redefined success in their fields and taken their athlete’s mindset to the real world – NBA legend Kobe Bryant, tennis champion Venus Williams, and WWE superstar Becky Lynch. Each guest opens up about their unique journey to greatness, sharing intimate stories about their early struggles, breakthrough moments, and the mental fortitude that drove them to the top of their respective sports. From Kobe’s revelations about his father’s impact, to Venus’s insights on business transitions, to Becky’s inspiring transformation in professional wrestling, each conversation reveals universal truths about perseverance, authenticity, and the true meaning of success.

"I think there's a difference between having self belief at your core and having situational moments where you don't feel good about it." - Venus Williams

And now let’s jump into episode 1706 of The School of Greatness!

"If you bring forth what is within you, what you bring forth will complete you. If you do not bring forth what is within you, what you bring forth will destroy you." - Shared by Becky Lynch
