"Great mental performance guidebook to help athletes be their best. Helpful to coaches looking for ways to include mental training in their practice plans. Written from the perspective of a former college softball player but equally applicable to any other athletes or sports. At the highest levels, mental performance is what separates the elite from the rest and it can be trained. A resource that you will return to often. Highly recommended!"

"If you are an athlete, parent, coach, or instructor...this is a must read! I pride myself of getting to know my athletes and what makes them say and do the things they do. This book has not only helped me become a better coach, it has also helped me understand my own self better. The first time I read the book from the perspective of my daughters or what I thought their perspective would be. As I reread chapters again, I find myself relating it to my own experiences. This is a great source of information and it is very well written! Kudos to Valerie for the time, energy, and effort she puts into helping others!.
