#97 Andrew May Live Keynote - Inside Job
Just like putting a fitness program together to train the body to be healthy, fit, flexible, and strong; we can do the same for your brain. Sustainable high performance requires an inside out approach and there are critical inflection points in our lives where it is vital to 'do an inside job.'
Are you armed with the skills to do this?
Listen to a live recording of Andrew presenting his Inside Job presentation to ACTA, where he leverages neuroscience (scientific study of the nervous system and brain) performance psychology and 20 years experience coaching some of the world’s leading athletes, CEOs, and entrepreneurs.

Performance psychology shows training the mind is like learning a new skill, like playing the guitar or ice skating. And we need to keep practising (reps and sets) and have the right coaching and support until we become competent and gain mastery.
Learn to be calm under pressure through front-loading cognitive skills, so they can then be drawn upon when needed most. In this episode Andrew explores:
