Title: Mental Performance Coaching: Finding Space in th e Cancer Community!
Presenter: Keisha Hart, M.S.
Let’s get the cred entials out of the way. They are important, but my story and my “Why” are d efinitely what I want you to know about me.
I have a bachelor’s in psychology and a master's in sport and performance psychology. < /p>
Okay, now onto the good stuff.
The spark to be a mental p erformance consultant came from my undergrad psychology professor, Professo r Maudlin. She asked me to read The Foundations of Sport and Exercise P sychology. It was my first storytime, much better than a fairytale and one that truly inspired me towards my passion for helping others. < /p>
Early on, I worked closely with female Olympic weightlifters and creat ed a successful confidence workshop at several local CrossFit gyms. And wow , did this really brighten and liven my passion for both individual and tea m athletes. While working with these groups we built confidence, created su stainable habits, and gained more self-awareness. As both my experience and knowledge grew, I was guided towards working with athletes impacted by bre ast cancer with BFB, a worldwide recognized nonprofit with the mission to p rovide physical and mental wellbeing support for women impacted by breast c ancer. During my two years as the mental performance coach and while helpin g to establish its signature Resources After Diagnosis Program, I recognize d that I wanted to expand my career focus and help others take control of t heir mental well-being and reach their full potential. And so, I continued on to my next life purpose, Keisha Christine Mental Performance. I created my consulting business to work with individuals, to collaborate with teams and create a 10-week course and impact others through public speaking event s. Essentially, I empowered myself to make a bigger impact knowing my “Why” and my own skillset. I created and set goals and lived my truth so that I can further help others to do the same. My enthusiasm for what I do is one of the characteristics I am most proud of having."
