What goes on inside the mind of a professional athlete? Most of us watch from the stands or on TV, but few truly understand the mental battles that unfold before, during, and after the game.
In this episode, we sit down with Troy Westwood—former CFL kicker and punter who spent 18 years with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, a musician, and a radio host. Troy takes us beyond the field, sharing his personal journey through the highs and lows of professional sports, the intense mental focus required under pressure, and how he learned to channel positivity instead of succumbing to negativity.
How does an athlete handle the weight of expectations? What happens when the game ends, and the roar of the crowd fades? Troy opens up about the mental toll of competition, the strategies he used to maintain resilience, and the importance of mindset in overcoming challenges—not just in sports, but in life.
