<p>We all have our “things” — the socks we always wear, the lucky leash, the warm-up routine. But what’s the difference between a superstition and a routine? Or a ritual and a habit? In this episode, we dig into the psychology behind the things we repeat before our runs and how they can either support or sabotage our mindset. Spoiler: superstition isn’t a bad word. In fact, it might be your secret weapon... when you use it with intention.</p> <p>☕ Enjoying the podcast?

<p>Bad trial day? We’ve all been there. Instead of letting it ruin my mindset, I used it as a live experiment in bouncing back—fast. In this episode, I break down exactly what went wrong, how I recovered in under an hour, and the mindset tools every handler needs to reset after setbacks. Whether you struggle with ring nerves, frustration, or just a rough competition day, this is your roadmap to getting back on track—quickly. Let’s make mental resilience a priority!</p> <p>☕ Enjoying the podcast?
