      About the Author

      Introduction

      Did you know that feeling CONFIDENT as a diver is possible? 

      Hi there! I’m Sara and I’m a Peak Performance Coach.

      I come across too many divers who worry that their fears and self doubts are unusual, believing they’re the only one experiencing these thoughts and feelings!

      I’m here to set the record straight and give you a roadmap to consistently experience more confidence in your training and performance.

      You see, it’s NORMAL for ALL divers to feel scared, frightened, and nervous to do particular dives at some point or another. 

      It’s also NORMAL for ALL divers to compare themselves to others, worry about balking on a certain dive at a meet, or stress out about getting all the dives in their list.

      I get it. You want to do a good job. You won’t stop at anything short of perfect to meet your goals.

      And yet, do you find yourself frustrated when you make mistakes or have a bad day at practice? You try so hard, but still don’t feel consistently confident and secure in yourself or your diving? 

      As someone who has spent hundreds of hours working with divers and coaches, I’ve heard hundreds of the same kinds of stories:

      Divers who:

      wish they felt more confident

      deal with persistent negative thinking and self doubts.

      wish they knew what to do about feeling scared to go for a new dive.

      get so frustrated at themselves for making mistakes.

      would love to get consistent with their dive list.

      have lost dives or feel blocked on dives they’ve been able to do for years.

      constantly compare themselves to their teammates or opponents.

      want to easily calm themselves down before a meet.

      After working with divers in and out of the pool it’s clear there’s BASIC information missing from foundational diving education about how our brain and body work, and how this influences athletic performance. 

      Fortunately, you can learn how to help your body feel confident! This is a skill, just like learning a back 1 ½ or front double. 

      You can train your brain to think differently! How would it feel to reduce those negative thoughts and doubts?

      There are simple concepts, practices, and tools you can learn and practice to make you feel more confident, consistent and an overall better diver TODAY! 

      I wrote this book because every diver should have these foundational pieces of mind-body-performance information to make their diving training and meet execution easier, more focused, and more consistent. 

      Being a diver is hard work. You have to put in the time and effort to excel in
