🦸🧠adhd is my superpower: I get bored with what doesn’t work, obsess over what does, and constantly search for the next way to improve besides “work harder.”

I believe the key to being an elite athlete goes beyond working hard — ALL athletes work hard. The key is structuring all 24 hours of your day ⏰ around maximizing the benefits of that work. That includes little details like sleep 😴, nutrition 🍖, meditation 🧘‍♂️, recovery modalities 🙆🏼‍♂️ 🧊, and (most importantly) unstructured time to PLAY 🤪!

I’ve used this approach to perform Personal Best Times in swimming at the age of 30, and qualify for my 4th straight 🇺🇸US Olympic Trials, while only practicing swimming for 90 minutes a week.

For comparison, I averaged 16 hours a week in the pool for almost a decade as a collegiate & pro athlete before I changed my approach — which means I now spend 90% less time ✂️ to get similar results.

My mission is to take my own experience as an elite athlete & the experience of the elite athletes I interview on my podcast, and use that knowledge to help others kick ass in high-pressure situations & structure their day to maximize performance.

I am on Clubhouse to connect with others who want to continue to improve their effectiveness in those situations & maximize their own potential, and to continue to develop my own live public speaking abilities.
