\\u201cBecause I have such a deep interest in business, and have done so much in terms of hiring and building teams, I think very differently. I have all these myths I\\u2019m debunking, the myths that are causing a whole bunch of fear in these athletes.\\u201d

Helping athletes make the transition out of their sport and into their next career, whether starting a new business, or working for a company, is a core element of what I do. This is why it brings a big smile to my face to find a kindred spirit in today\\u2019s Make Your Mark guest, Kathryn Ducey, as she is becoming one of Canada\\u2019s foremost experts in working with athletes, both current and retired.

\\u201cIf you think about athletes and their worlds within sport, they have a coach who helps them manage their mind within the environment that they\\u2019re in, and once they leave that environment, everyone just kind of goes and disappears.\\u201d

Kathryn digs deep into her childhood and uses her experiences to drive progress with each athlete she works with, helping them manage their minds within the worlds that they exist in, allowing them to get their perspective in a good space before moving towards the next step in their career. You will see throughout this episode that Kathryn is a warm, engaging, funny and smart as heck professional with hundreds of hours of speaking (and more importantly, listening) to athletes, their coaches, and family members. I really like her style and approach, and you will to!

\\u201cWe have 60,000 thoughts every day, and half of them are negative. 2500 of those negative thoughts happen every hour, and we don\\u2019t think any of that is impacting us? So let\\u2019s get to the bottom of what those thoughts are. What are the circumstances, what are the thoughts that you had, what are the feelings that they created, the action, inaction, reaction, and that creates your results.\\u201d
