In this episode of Beyond Coaching, Rob sits down once again with Mitch Hull to explore a surprising idea: stress isn't the enemy—how we view it is. Drawing on Kelly McGonigal’s TED Talk and Carol Dweck’s mindset research, Mitch shares practical strategies for reframing stress in high-performance settings, whether you're a coach, athlete, or parent.

“It’s not the stress—it’s how we react to it. If you see it as preparation, your body helps you perform.”
— Mitch Hull
“If you’re not nervous before a championship, there’s only one explanation: you don’t care. And that’s a bigger issue.”
— Mitch Hull
