The Olympics Mindset with Erin Aldrich-Shean (Episode 306)
b'
Note: This episode does contain discussion of abuse.
While having great athletic skills is key to being an Olympian, mindset also plays a major part in being able to compete with the best of the best. In this episode, we talk with Olympian Erin Aldrich-Shean about the journey she\'s taken from elite athlete to becoming a coach and consultant to help others attain an Olympic mindset.
We talked with Erin about her athletic career--part of which involves an abusive relationship with a coach--her time at the Olympics, and how she now helps people achieve their goals.
