Heather Moyse on How to Create a Gold Medal Mindset | EP 538

In this episode of Passion Struck, John R. Miles welcomes Heather Moyse, a four-time Olympian, two-time Olympic gold medalist, and World Rugby Hall of Fame Inductee, to discuss cultivating a resilient mindset. Heather shares her transformative shift from a "Can I?" approach to a "How can I?" approach, empowering individuals to focus on solutions and embrace challenges as opportunities for growth.

Reflecting on her upbringing in Prince Edward Island and her unexpected leap into bobsledding at 27, Heather highlights the importance of setting ambitious goals, overcoming self-doubt, and redefining what’s realistic. Drawing from her book Redefining Realistic, she inspires listeners to confront self-limiting beliefs and take actionable steps toward their dreams. This episode is a powerful reminder of the potential within all of us to achieve more than we imagine.

In this episode, you will learn:

• Shift from "Can I?" to "How can I?": Changing the question from a binary "Can I?" to an open-ended "How can I?" encourages a focus on solutions and possibilities rather than limitations.
• Embrace Challenges: Viewing challenges as opportunities to learn and grow can foster resilience. Instead of fearing failure, approach goals with curiosity about how close you can achieve them.
• Visualization and Goal Breakdown: Breaking goals into smaller, manageable steps and visualizing the process can help maintain motivation and clarity on the path forward.
• Support Systems: A strong support system that values you for who you are rather than your performance can provide a safety net that encourages risk-taking and exploration.
• Gamify the Process: Treating goal achievement as a game—asking "How close can I get?"—can make the journey enjoyable and reduce the pressure associated with high-stakes outcomes.
• Resilience Through Experience: Learning from setbacks and understanding that highly unlikely outcomes do not equate to impossibility can strengthen mental fortitude.
