The Archery Parent Podcast
Joe Leszner: Acknowledgement, Acceptance & Authenticity

Joe Leszner: Acknowledgement, Acceptance & Authenticity


What does it take to transform from a nervous Archer into a confident competitor who can perform under the world's most intense pressure? The answer might surprise you. It has nothing to do with "feeling good" or "faking it".


Join us for a revealing conversation with Joe Leszner, the Mental Performance Consultant who became an internet sensation during the 2023 World Archery Championships in Berlin. Joe shares the strategies that helped Canadian Archers achieve breakthrough performances on the world's biggest stages, from his work with Olympic and Paralympic athletes to his role in Team Canada's historic bronze medal win at the 2024 Yecheon World Cup.


In this episode, you'll discover:

• Why Joe's "net neutral" philosophy changes everything about how we think about support systems in Archery

• The truth about emotions and performance: why athletes "don't need to feel good to be good"

• How being the underdog became Team Canada's secret weapon at the 2024 World Cup

• Why "fake it 'til you make it" actually hurts performance and what to do instead

• The strategic psychology behind "the Plan" in Berlin (from the high-fives to the "I love you, Sjef!")

• Practical tools for navigating Archery's unique mental challenges, like the "Archer's Kryptonite"


Joe brings impressive credentials to his unconventional approach. But, it's his practical, real-world approach that sets him apart from traditional sports psychology. Whether you're a parent supporting a development Archer or working with athletes competing on the world stage, Joe's insights challenge conventional thinking about mental performance and offer practical tools that can benefit Archers at every level.


His philosophy embraces the Archer's journey focussing on seeking progress rather than demanding perfection.

It's a balance that proves essential for long-term success and enjoyment in this demanding sport.

The Archery Parent Podcast

Welcome Archery Family! This is the Archery Parent Podcast - What you need to know to best support your Archer.


The Archery Parent Podcast is a Survival Guide for family and friends.


We will take you from the Beginner Archer to competition, and into High-Performance. Don't worry, this podcast has nothing to do with How to Shoot. We're leaving that up to your Archer. We will talk about everything you, as an Archery Parent, are responsible for.


We'll cover:

*Indoor to outdoor Archery and the differences

*The nuances of the Canadian Archery community

*How to Find a Coach

*Crossing the Canada/US border with Archery equipment

*Costs

*Travel

*Reviews of products that will make your life easier

*Where to shop for Archery equipment

*The importance of creating a community

*Nutrition and General Health

*Getting ready for your first outdoor tournament

*How to get involved

*What to say and what not to say to your Archer

*The future of Archery in Canada


And, we will have interviews with special guests from Canada, the USA, and abroad


There's so much more we can't wait to share with you.
