Why I Want To Be A Coach

I am a former collegiate tennis player at Ferris State University and graduated with a masters degree in education. I moved on to become head women’s tennis coach and health and wellness professor at Kalamazoo College. I have been a USPTA certified tennis pro for 20 years and in addition, a performance coach for athletes.

When I played college tennis, I would mentally bail out under pressure, and I didn’t know why. Just telling me to be confident, didn’t work.

As a parent and a coach of 20 years, I saw these issues coming up with my own kiddos as athletes and with my clients for years. I wanted to dive deeper to find answers for them.

When I learned we create our own experiences and reach peak performance from the inside out, everything changed for me.

I was motivated to research, absorb, learn and discover how to teach my own kiddos and athletes that I worked with.

Through all of it, I’ve learned IT IS possible to perform in my full potential, play freely and succeed in my sport and in life.

I’ve learned:

* Everyone has negative thoughts, even professional athletes.

* Thoughts are neutral, not instruction or who we are.

* If we believe them or try to fix them they stay around longer.

* If we don’t give these thoughts time and attention, they will settle naturally.

I’m excited that I now get to share my insights so athletes can experience breakthrough and peak performance.
