Going pro means ‘in motion’. In the process moving towards a better future, it is daily practice of focusing on ‘the process’ instead of focusing on where you want to end up. This doesn’t simply have to be related to tennis; it can be for all athletic pursuits, in business, in relationships or life in general. Through conversation we'll be telling stories and extracting practical tools to help people with their growth and how to move towards lasting change for the better.
