A PODCAST FOR ELITE ATHLETES, PARENTS, AND COACHES... As a Sports Performance Consultant, I've worked with hundreds of student-athletes, parents, mentors, and coaches. The most common hopes and dreams of these Student-Athletes and their support community are to get a D-1 scholarship, go Pro, or make it to the Olympics.

However, they're often held back by pains and fears that include self-doubt, peer pressure, fake friends, making mistakes in games or practice, and criticism from parents and coaches. These personal constraints lead to barriers and uncertainties: such as no confidence, laziness, and depression.

Sports Mastery has been formulated to help the motivated but struggling student-athlete to accomplish their hopes and dreams. But they can't do it alone! THEY NEED YOU, the parent, the mentor, the coach. This podcast provides the Student-Athlete and their support team with the systems and strategies to help them break through all barriers and limitations!

The tools I provide range from visualization exercises to print out reminders that you can tape to the fridge. You can even listen to each episode with your Student-Athlete. Use the episodes as a conversation starter... because your relationship with the Student-Athlete is PARAMOUNT TO THEIR SUCCESS. Start now by downloading my FREE guide: "5 Devastating Mistakes Every Elite Athlete Should Avoid” at http://www.SportsMastery.com

Channel this incredible content and YOU WILL aid the growth of your Student-Athlete as a student, an athlete, a young person, and a future leader.

Coach Luchi ,

My man!

Coach can’t believe it took me this long to find this. Only listened to a little bit so far but know I’ll be digging deep on these. Getting to know you personally has been amazing can’t wait to see what else I can learn from you

Exemplary Personified

I started listening to DeShawn’s podcast about a month ago and was thoroughly impressed with the balanced and straightforward structure and delivery. So much wealth of knowledge on how to make better decisions in sports, education and overall life.

Excellent Podcast

I don’t leave many reviews on podcasts but being a sports performance coach myself, this podcast is great. We need more people like Deshawn helping young athletes grow and bridging that gap
