Bite Size: Why Only Preparing for Success Can Break a Team | Dr Michael Gervais

Performance Intelligence Podcast

What happens when a team trains for success but doesn't plan for failure?

In this Bite Size from episode #140, world-renowned performance psychologist Dr. Michael Gervais reflects on one of the toughest moments of his career — the Seattle Seahawks' heartbreaking Super Bowl loss.

Michael shares the raw, behind-the-scenes story of how that single moment sent shockwaves through the team, mentally and emotionally. His biggest lesson? If you only prepare for winning, the cost of failure can be devastating - and long-lasting.

This is a masterclass in mental resilience, recovery, and leadership when everything falls apart.
