Being an athlete today is hard. Talent isn't enough. I know because I’ve been there—fighting through failure, struggling with mindset, and ultimately walking away, despite the talent.
That’s exactly why I coach mindset and mental skills for baseball players who want more. It’s about more than just playing well—it’s about optimizing habits, leveling up your confidence, and building the grit to thrive both on and off the field.
Backed by neuroscience and combining the grit of sports with the precision of executive coaching, I’m bringing real, hard-earned lessons to athletes like you. Together, we’ll crush performance anxiety, build mental toughness and hit peak focus.
My style? It’s raw, real and gritty. No fluff—just straight-up truth with a dose of fun to keep it fresh.
At Next Season, we process the past, perform in the present and prepare for the future…whatever is NEXT.

You need to know what coaches and scouts are really looking for. Baseball is a game of details. And if you're missing these ones, you’re in trouble.
In Part 2 of this two-part series, I break down 4 more subtle red flags that silently kill trust with coaches and hold players back—on the field and in life.
These aren’t just performance issues.
These are character issues, mindset traps, and lifestyle habits that coaches notice… even if you think they don’t.
(I had a few challenges with the mic and recording this episode, appreciate your understanding with the minor audio issues)
🚩 Victim Mentality & Self-Shaming
🚩 The Impact of Poor Nutrition, Hydration and Sleep
🚩 The 'Always Kinda Hurt' Guy
🚩 Not Cleaning Up The Dugout
PLUS why they matter from a brain-science 🧠 perspective, and what you can do about it.
If you’re serious about getting recruited, earning playing time and becoming a complete player, this is an episode you can’t afford to skip.
