Ep 437 - Is High Performance Without Pressure Possible?
Manage episode 490718244 series 2089663
Welcome back to RNT Fitness Radio.
Today, I’m joined by Coach Ivan, who’s flown in all the way from Australia to spend a few days with us here in the UK. While he’s over, we decided to hit record on a conversation we’ve been having behind the scenes — all about the concept of performance without pressure.
For most of my life, I’ve thrived on pressure. Big goals. High stakes. All-or-nothing thinking. It’s driven a lot of what I’ve achieved. But recently, I’ve started to question whether that pressure is still serving me — or if it’s just a part of an old identity I’ve outgrown. In this episode, we unpack what it really means to perform at a high level without constantly chasing, grinding, or forcing outcomes. It’s a reflective and real conversation, and I hope it sparks something for you too.
Let’s dive in.
