Engaging Content

I’ve really enjoyed the last two episodes featuring past collegiate and pro athletes discuss a winning mindset and how we create beliefs intentionally or unintentionally. As an entrepreneur it’s very interesting to hear these stories about applying lessons learned from athletics to the mental game that we play with ourselves while running a business. Thanks to Upperhand for a great podcast, looking forward to future episodes!
