    S3-E176 - Mental Toughness - 2 x Olympian, How To Face The F Words

    What happens when fear shows up on the biggest day of your life? In this episode of the Champion Mindset Collective, Anthony sits down with Shawnee Harle, a two-time Olympian and Mental Toughness Coach, to unpack what mental toughness really looks like when the pressure is on. This is not a hype or motivation chat. It is a real conversation about fear, self-doubt, emotional storms, and why so many talented people fall apart at the exact moment it matters most. Shawnee shares her Olympic story, the painful lessons learned from losing on the world’s biggest stage, and how that experience shaped her work today. She introduces her powerful F Words framework, Fake, Fear, Feel, Face, Forgive, and Freedom, and explains why learning to face uncomfortable emotions is the key to confidence, performance, and growth. This episode is for athletes, parents, coaches, leaders, and anyone who has ever felt stuck in their head, overwhelmed by pressure, or paralysed by self-doubt. Key Takeaways Mental toughness is not about pretending to be confident when fear is present Fear is not the enemy, avoiding it is Technical skill cannot solve emotional problems under pressure Confidence built on slogans collapses when stress hitsLearning to feel and face emotions builds long-term resilienceFreedom comes from self-awareness, not controlEmotional intelligence is a performance skill, not a soft skill #ChampionMindset,#MentalToughness,#EmotionalIntelligence,#HighPerformance,#AthleteMindset,#Confidence,#Leadership,#Resilience,#OlympicMindset,#MindsetMatters,#PersonalGrowth,#FaceYourFear Timestamps 00:00 Introduction and why mental toughness matters02:10 Shawnee’s Olympic story and the moment fear took over06:45 Why confidence slogans fail under pressure10:30 Emotional storms and performance breakdowns14:20 The F Words framework explained19:40 Why fear is not the enemy24:10 Teaching athletes to feel and face emotions29:30 Parents, coaches, and the pressure problem34:20 From fear to freedom38:10 Applying mental toughness beyond sport42:00 Final reflections and key takeaways 🌐 Connect with Shawnee Harle: ➡️ LinkedIn Profile: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/shawnee.harle.2025/ ➡️ Website:⁠ https://www.shawneeharle.com/ ➡️ Instagram:⁠ https://www.instagram.com/shawneeharle/ 📢 Connect with Anthony Dahya: 🌐 Website – Champion Mindset Collective ➡️ LinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/anthonydahya/ ➡️ Facebook – facebook.com/anthonydahya ➡️ Instagram – @anthony.dahya ➡️ YouTube – @anthonydahya ➡️ Spotify – Champion Mindset Collective ➡️ AI Workflows Agency – https://aiworkflows.agency 📧 Email – podcast@anthonydahya.com 💬 Join the Conversation: Leave your thoughts or questions in the comments or message Anthony directly.
