About the Guest:
Coach Sandy Cohen is a high-energy mindset coach and speaker who has worked with thousands—from young kids to Olympians. He's the author of 99 Rules Every Athlete Needs to Know and 99 Rules Every Sports Parent Needs to Know, offering straightforward, no-fluff strategies to build character through sport. Sandy’s mission is simple: sports are the vehicle, but character is the destination.
Key Takeaways:
-
Mindset isn’t fluff—it’s foundational. Sandy defines mindset through what he calls “The Big 7”: belief, attitude, grit, focus, emotional control, discipline, and self-awareness.
-
Confidence is not the root; belief is. Without belief, confidence and performance crumble.
-
Athletes and parents often focus too much on outcomes. The real win lies in mastering actions and behaviors.
-
Parents have a massive role—not as second coaches, but as steady supporters who know when not to intervene.
-
Burnout happens when athletes ignore recovery and emotional health. Grit isn’t about pushing blindly—it’s about knowing when to pause and reset.
