Welcome to The Mindset Coach Academy Podcast, I’m Lindsey Wilson, former pro athlete, high-performance mindset coach, and entrepreneur and here we’ll dive into everything mindset. I have lived all these mindset tools- as an athlete, a business owner, a mom, a human. And together, you and I will sit in the student chair and study mindset. We’ll work on our own mindset and even talk about how to build a mindset coaching business if that’s your thing. With experts in the field, athletes, coaches, and other high-performance individuals, we are going to nerd out on the mental side of the game. This podcast is all about being a student of mindset. We believe mindset work isn’t about fixing or changing, it’s becoming more of who you were always meant to be. Here we work on our mindset. The good stuff, the hard stuff, the stuff most people won’t do. We have officially changed our name from The Inner Game to The Mindset Coach Academy podcast because we are specifically looking to grow as coaches and students of mindset. We’ll interview top experts in the field and high-achieving individuals about how mindset has brought them success, as well as dive deep into mindset training. New episodes will drop every 2nd and 4th Wednesday of the month, as well as short 5-minute episodes every Mental Monday. Our first two guests are badass female Olympians successful on the playing field and rocking it off the field as well. We’ll start off with former Olympic Volleyball Player Courtney Thompson.

Please welcome my guest today, Nate Daniels!
As a former Professional Football Player, Collegiate All-American, Ferrum College Hall of Fame Inductee, and Fairfax High School Sports Hall of Fame Inductee, Nate knows what it takes to be successful at the highest level of sports. He has over 20 years of experience coaching and mentoring athletes and is passionate about helping the next generation of “athletes, parents, and coaches navigate their sports journey off the field/court so they can dominate on it.”
Today, Nate is the proud owner of a physical training center, Daniel’s Sport Performance, and a mental training center, Next Level Athletes. In this episode, Nate talks all about why and HOW he made his Mental Training business OFFICIAL.
What I love about this interview with Nate is that this man lives and breathes what he teaches. His is an agent for change within the sports world and passionate about his mission to help others with mental training. He shares real life details about how he started, how he packages his services, what he charges, and so many other boots-on-the-ground details that are invaluable to up-and-comers. Most of all he’s proof that you can help people AND make money.
If you are an aspiring mindset coach, this interview will help you peek behind the curtain and see what it really looks like to run a thriving business in this space.
A huge thank you to Nate for being vulnerable and sharing his story. I have no doubt it will inspire so many other mindset coaches to follow their passion.
