Trauma is everywhere, and so is performance pressure. The Kaizen Catalyst Podcast is where those two worlds meet. I’m Stephanie High, M.A. — trauma-informed performance psychology coach — and I created this show to help athletes, professionals, and leaders understand how trauma impacts performance, and more importantly, how to respond in ways that build resilience instead of reinforcing harm. In each episode, you’ll hear a mix of science, storytelling, and practical tools. From trauma-informed leadership to resilience training and post-traumatic growth, this is a space for learning how to perform at your best without losing yourself in the process. If you want grounded insights, real talk, and actionable strategies for thriving under pressure, you’re in the right place.
