When was the last time you gave a team member feedback… and knew it would help them grow without damaging trust?
🎧 Listen to the full episode here: https://youtu.be/Pm8l5dvTx60

For most leaders, giving constructive feedback to a team member is a balancing act — push too hard on accountability and you risk eroding connection; lean too far into empathy and performance can slip.

In the latest Leadership Launchpad Project podcast, Susan Hobson and Tracey Allen unpack the art (and science) of doing both well.

💡 In this live coaching session, Susan guides Tracey through the real-life tension between empathy and impact, revealing:
✅ Why grounded empathy is a leader’s most powerful feedback tool
✅ How to hold your team accountable without losing connection
✅ The mindset shifts that transform tough talks into growth moments
✅ Why feedback — when done right — is an ultimate act of care in conscious leadership

If you’ve ever worried about being “too tough” or “too soft” with your team, this episode will help you find your balance — so feedback fuels trust, performance, and alignment with your values.

Are you chasing “perfect” when what you really want is progress?

For many high-achieving women, perfectionism feels like power.
But here’s the truth: it’s often a shield—protecting us from fear of judgment, being replaced, or not being enough.

That shield doesn’t make you stronger.
It makes you smaller.
Because when leadership is driven by fear, control replaces clarity. Overthinking replaces confidence. And your brilliance stays locked behind self-doubt.

You don’t need more tools, tricks, or tips.
You need a mindset shift—a way of thinking that is calm, confident, and self-led, rooted in neuroscience, not guesswork.

That’s exactly what we built in Women’s Empowerment Launchpad 2.0.
This mindset-first program is designed for women ready to:
✅ Break free from perfectionism
✅ Trust their leadership voice
✅ Reclaim time and energy
✅ Lead with confidence aligned to their values

If you’re done overworking and under-recognized—and ready to lead from clarity, not control—this is your moment.

What if you are the one unconsciously blocking your next breakthrough?
You’re driven. You’re committed. You’re making moves.

But just as momentum builds, something pulls you back—again.
That’s the invisible loop of self-sabotage.
Procrastination. Avoidance. Negative self-talk.
Even fear of success.

All of it often rooted in one core belief: “I’m not good enough.”

💡 As Elite High Performance Coach Liane Wansbrough shares:
“Self-sabotage isn’t personal—it’s patterned. But it can be interrupted.”
The first step? Awareness.
The second? Support that helps you rewire the internal patterns holding you back—so you can move with clarity, confidence, and alignment toward your goals.

You don’t need to do more. You need to think differently.

🧠 What if pressure didn’t break your performance—but built it?
Read the full article: https://www.elitehighperformance.com/2025/08/06/how-to-overcome-pressure-in-sports/

Whether you're an athlete chasing peak performance or a coach trying to unlock more from your team, pressure is unavoidable. The clock’s ticking. The crowd is roaring. Expectations are high.

In those moments, pressure can either sharpen your focus—or sabotage your flow.

But what if it’s not the pressure itself, but your relationship to it that makes all the difference?

🏅 In her latest article, Elite High Performance Coach Beatrice Hipolito dives deep into the neuroscience and mindset strategies behind handling pressure in sport—and how to transform it from a threat into a tool.

📌 Key takeaways:
- The difference between good pressure (flow state) vs bad pressure (external expectations).
- How to recognize the signs that pressure is taking a toll—from anxiety to sudden performance dips.
- Practical tools like pre-performance rituals, breathwork, positive self-talk, and goal reframing to perform with intention and confidence.

Whether you’re an Olympic hopeful or a young athlete finding your rhythm, this article is packed with science-backed insights to help you train your mind like you train your body.

Athletes—what’s costing you more: your mistakes, or your reaction to them?
Read the article: https://www.elitehighperformance.com/2025/07/30/emotional-intelligence-in-sports/

You’ve trained your body. You’ve honed your skills.
But if you’re not training your emotional game, you could be leaving performance on the table.
This isn’t mindset fluff. It’s not a bonus skill.

It’s called emotional intelligence (EQ)—and it might be the most underrated edge in elite sport.

In her latest article, Lauren Williams, M.Ed —High Performance Coach for Athletes—dives deep into:
🏋️‍♂️ What EQ really means in high-stakes athletics
🧠 How it helps you stay locked in, bounce back, and lead under pressure
⚠️ Signs your emotional game might be holding you back
🔥 Five real-world ways to start building emotional strength right now
