At the Sports Changing The World Event, I shared how mental training can transform performance. Drawing on my Olympic journey and expertise in psychology, I explored practical tools to build focus, resilience, and confidence.

I recently had the pleasure of joining the Healthy Longevity Education Talks podcast, where I discussed the pivotal role of mental training in achieving peak performance.

I had the pleasure of joining Brett Hawke’s podcast to dive deep into what it takes to develop the mind of a champion. From my 200 Free final in Beijing—where I won Olympic silver—to my journey into performance psychology, we cover everything from mental training to managing pressure. Whether you're an athlete, a coach, or a high performer in any field, this episode is full of tools and stories to help you thrive.

Hosted by Christian Bosse, we explore my Olympic journey, the impact of visualization, and the mental strategies behind my success. I also reflect on life after sport, my mentoring program, and the key lessons I’ve learned along the way.

As a guest speaker at the BCEC conference, I shared insights from neuroscience and performance psychology on how awareness, stress, and emotional regulation impact our ability to make ethical decisions and build resilience.

In my TEDx talk, I reveal how psychological preparation is essential for pilots, exploring the training, resilience, and safety measures required to minimize risks and excel under pressure.

In 2013 and 2014, I conducted neuroscience research at UC San Diego, exploring how the brain supports resilience in elite performers. I co-authored two published studies—one on the effects of mindfulness training in athletes, and another on the neural patterns of low resilience. These insights continue to shape my work in helping others build mental strength and self-awareness.
