Nicholas Pallesen: Transformative Approach to Performance Anxiety
If you have any questions about performance anxiety, how to tackle it, master it, and how to perform at your best, this is the episode for you! Today, I speak with Nicholas Pallesen.
In today’s show, Transformative Coach and Mental Performance Consultant Nicholas Pallesen invites us to take a different look at performance anxiety! In his own words, Nicholas doesn’t fix people: he helps them see they were never broken. Our conversation will have you look at the root cause of your anxiety and stress, and will help you get out of your head and get into your life!
You’ll hear Nicholas talk about:
How the meaning we attach to the outcome of a performance and the need for outside validation – is at the root of performance anxiety Why it’s important to “play to play” and why it’s helps us perform better Why we don’t need to “feel a certain way” to perform our best What headspace we should aim to be in for a performance How to better get in the zone Why we must trust our intuition, and much more! Why he started to question a lot of the basic premises that we operate from when it comes to performance anxiety How he decided to tackle the issue of performance anxiety at the root Why performance anxiety is the feeling we get when we forgot that we’re going to be okay Why “thinking” that there are stakes – the meaning we attach to the outcome of a performance and the need for outside validation – is at the root of performance anxiety Why it’s important to “play to play” and why it’s helps us perform better Why we don’t need to “feel a certain way” to perform our best What headspace we should aim to for a performance and what “the zone” is How to better get in the zone Why we must trust our intuition
