Dr. Haley Perlus is a world-renowned sport psychologist,
keynote speaker, and performance consultant who helps elite
athletes and top executives unlock their mental edge.

In this energising and insightful episode, Dr. Haley returns to
the show to unpack the power of emotional mastery and mental
recovery under pressure. With decades of experience working with
Olympians, X-Games champions, and global business leaders, she
reveals why high performers aren't perfect—they're the best at
bouncing back.

This conversation is packed with practical mental tools,
real-life stories, and game-changing mindset shifts that will
help you recover faster, perform better, and lead with purpose.

What we cover in this episode:

Why recovery—not perfection—wins the game

Mental toughness vs. mental weakness (and how to spot both)

The fastest way to move from anger to focus

The 4 types of emotions and how to use each one

Tools like progressive muscle relaxation, reframing, and
visualisation

How to develop your own reset ritual in 16 seconds

The difference between letting go and letting yourself off
the hook

Trigger warning: This episode briefly discusses emotional
distress and performance anxiety.

If this episode inspired you, please share it with someone who
leads under pressure. A simple mindset shift could be all they
need to break through.
