006 Separate your Identity from your Performance Pt.1 with Katlyn Holmes

What’s up guys! Happy Holidays! Welcome back to The Athlete Angle. Today we’re chatting with one of my best friends, Katlyn Holmes. Katlyn was a collegiate softball player recruited at the top of her class. She was the starting pitcher and broke records at her high school. Colleges started recruiting her in middle school! Unreal. We dive into her origin story and what it was like to have her identity associated with softball at such a young age. We discuss Katlyn’s journey on separating her identity from her performance, (which is ingrained in us as athletes) and how she began to rewire her mind to think differently about her identity outside of softball. Stick around for part 2 of our conversation next week we continue to discuss the challenges of creating an identity outside of your sport, what to do with the freedom that comes with retirement and lots more!
