Don’t Believe Everything You Think: How to Catch, Redirect, and Rewire the Junk in Your Head

Everyone’s talking about mindset like it’s a magic fix—but no one’s actually teaching people how to use it. Most folks are stuck in mental loops, talking themselves out of greatness with thoughts they didn’t even invite. They’re not lacking drive—they’re lacking tools. And unless we start treating mindset like a skill, we’ll keep spinning our wheels (just with better Pinterest quotes).

This keynote introduces a whole new relationship with mindset, mixing science, storytelling, and real-life tools that help people catch negative thought patterns, redirect them, and build resilience on purpose. Whether your audience is made up of student-athletes, school faculty, corporate teams, or aspiring leaders, this message meets them where they are.

• Understand how your thoughts shape your reality (and how to take back control)
• Learn how to catch, redirect, and reframe unhelpful thought loops
• Use breathwork to interrupt spirals and access calm, clarity, and confidence
• Visualize outcomes with intention—and watch them unfold
• Discover how to turn pain into power, so your hard stuff becomes your strong stuff
