Identity of an athlete

Working with athlete across Kansas City and virtually across both Kansas and Missouri

Reading an article recently, it reminded me of something that I now do without thinking, but what was once not in my thought processes when working with athletes.

Athletes exist in three realms, or better yet, are influenced and developed in three realms:

  • The area of play (field, court, pool and so on)
  • Their programming (coaches, school or travel program, and mental performance)
  • Their systems outside of the sport (family, social groups, daily habits, culture, social environment)

If we can consider this, we can get nearly the entire picture of an athlete in terms of development, innate tools, as well as idea of motivators and potential threats of best athlete self. Athletes are more than just athletes, but they also are more than what is seen when they compete.

Interested in the work I do, the info I share or simply work with athletes too? Shoot me a message and lets connect!
