Today we are speaking with Confidence & Mental Performance Coach, Shay Haddow. Shay Haddow is an expert coach and speaker on confidence and mindset for female athletes. Having worked with hundreds of female athletes, parents, and coaches from across the country, she’s empowering girl athletes to build unshakable confidence so they can live and play to their fullest potential.

After overcoming her own struggles with confidence throughout her childhood and athletic career, Shay knew that it was her life's purpose to provide female athletes with the mentorship that she wished she had when she was younger. Shay has dedicated her life to empowering female athletes of all ages to uncover their greatest superpower of all, allowing them to break free from their limitations and live a confident, empowered life.

In this episode we discuss:

1) Steps to improve our confidence, by being aware of the way we talk to ourselves, changing the words and replacing the negative words with more empowering words, and taking messy action to see results and learn as we grow.  This allows us to improve our confidence.

2) The importance of supporting, listening and encouraging our young athletes and parents at this time especially during the pandemic. Their voices need to be heard and valued as their typical outlets such as sports are not as easily accessible for them.

3) The more we can pour into our youth to help them build their confidence, which also includes letting them fail, the more we can potentially build confident leaders for the future.

4) We can all move from reluctant to resilient in our lives and continue to pay it forward and impact others to show them what is possible.
