About The Inner Game Podcast
Every great performer has a moment they almost lost to their own head. On The Inner Game Podcast, we take them back to it and get the exact words that were running through their mind. Subscribe so you don't miss an episode. New episodes every week. Most mental performance content tells you to step back from pressure. This show is about stepping into it. Fifty years ago, Tim Gallwey wrote down the formula: performance = potential − interference. You've already done the work. Your potential isn't the problem. The voice that judges, corrects and tightens you up at the worst possible moment is. Every episode, people who've lived it, including Pete Carroll, Bob Bowman, George Mumford and Brad Stulberg, go back to the moment interference nearly beat them and tell you exactly what they said to themselves to get through it. You won't just hear what the best think about pressure. You'll hear what they did in the moment, so you can do it in yours. Step into the pressure. Learn from the best. Be ready when it counts.
