Welcome to The Cognitive Athlete Podcast — the show where we explore how to think, work, and recover like an elite performer.

Hosted by Clint Rahe, high performance coach, speaker, and author of The Cognitive Athlete, this podcast helps leaders, thinkers, and doers achieve sustainable peak performance without burning out.

In this short trailer, Clint shares what inspired the show and what you can expect each week — practical, evidence-based tools drawn from neuroscience, sport, and leadership that will help you:

✅ Train your brain the way athletes train their bodies
✅ Replace time management with energy management
✅ Build daily rhythms of focus, recovery, and reflection
✅ Perform at your best when it really counts

After years training fighter pilots, athletes, and corporate leaders, Clint discovered one truth: success isn’t about grinding harder — it’s about training smarter.

Most professionals treat work like a never-ending marathon — meetings, emails, and deadlines until they collapse. The Cognitive Athlete Podcast flips that script. It’s about learning to recover strategically, structure your energy, and lead yourself and others with clarity and resilience.

Each Monday, you’ll hear short, actionable episodes that blend science, stories, and practical strategies you can apply right away. Some weeks Clint goes solo; other weeks, he’ll bring in high performers from sport, business, and the military to share how they stay sharp under pressure.

You’ll learn how to:
• Create deliberate recovery habits that fuel performance
• Build mental conditioning for focus and decision-making
• Redefine productivity through rhythm and reflection
• Lead teams without losing your edge

Every episode is crafted to help you work with your biology, not against it — so you can achieve more with less stress, and sustain it for the long game.
