No Way Out Mark McGrath and Brian "Ponch" Rivera

Are you ready to unlock the secrets of high-performing teams in sports? Join us as we dive into the captivating world of flow alongside our esteemed guest, world renowned ice hockey coach Digit Murphy. Discover how peak skill and flow states allow athletes to achieve incredible feats on the court, the ice, and even in the sky as fighter pilots.

Together with Digit, we dissect the astonishing recent success of the Florida Panthers in the NHL playoffs and uncover how their disruptive play and dynamic application of "Fast Transients" have pushed them into the spotlight. We also delve into the importance of resilience and understanding the concept of mismatches (surprise) in both sports and life, with Digit sharing her immense coaching experience to shed light on distributed leadership and team science.

Finally, we explore the unique perspectives offered by women athletes and the role of mental performance in sports, drawing parallels to the Florida Panthers' impressive run in the Stanley Cup playoffs. Don't miss out on this enlightening conversation with Digit Murphy as we investigate coaching, resilience, and the power of flow.
