Speaking

Speaking to athletes is Dr. Jarrod’s forte. He knows the complicated minds of today’s athletes and is adept at helping them unlock an even greater potential. He empowers athletes and leaders in sports to immediately understand what they need to do to feel, think, and perform better. In essence, he teaches them how the mind works best. His presentation style is always a dynamic blend of information, entertainment, and inspiration tailored to each audience. His speeches leave a lasting impression because of his unique ability to connect with athletes on many levels.

Mind of the Athlete: Clearer Mind, Better Performance. This is Dr. Jarrod’s signature program providing the key to better performance. Today’s athletes use their preconscious mind for speed in decision-making. The preconscious mind is not considered part of one’s immediate awareness but rather where decision metrics are stored. This part of the mind contains readily useful information based upon the athlete’s beliefs, values, vision, past experiences, intelligence, intuition, and much more. High-functioning athletes fine-tune their preconscious mind, keeping it clear and “in shape,” allowing for more energy, focus, creativity, and ultimately, a competitive advantage. But in today’s stressful, fast-paced world of sports, even the best athletes can suffer from overload and flood their ability to be present and productive. Dr. Jarrod is an expert on keeping the preconscious mind clear and functioning at its peak. During this program, participants will learn how the mind works, how to effectively keep it in shape and functioning at its best through difficult and stressful situations.

The 5 Hurdles: How Athletes Fall & Can Rise Again.   Dr. Jarrod addresses the 5 recurring problems that he witnesses athletes struggling with the most: insomnia, performance anxiety, energy level, misguided tensions, and loneliness. All of these hurdles are the results of a flooded preconscious mind and consequently undermine performance. Dr. Jarrod explains why these hurdles occur and gives practical skills for athletes to overcome them.

Sleep: The #1 Factor in Performance. The link between sleep and performance is one of the most overlooked aspects of athletic training. Nearly all athletes say that they are often tired and wish they had better performances.   Dr. Jarrod explains sleep from a psychological perspective.   Using research, case examples, and proven techniques for improved sleep, he empowers athletes with a game plan to overcome tiredness and insomnia. Athletes are equipped with over 21 new skills for better sleep...and thus better performance.
