your legacy is built on grass & dirt

If you’re only working on physical skills during practice, you’re missing the most critical aspect of the game.

Most softball coaches will admit, our game is mostly about mental strength. We’ve been talking about the intangibles and saying all the right things about the mental game for a while. Now we need to take all these great sayings and beliefs into practice. That’s our mission here at Mental Sweet Spot. We share stories, tips and strategies weekly on our podcast and dive deeper with our clients using our one-of-a-kind Dream Team Blueprint.

It’s been a process for us though.

Mel’s journey began as a perfectionist who was so hard on herself it cost her scholarships, opportunities at bigger schools, and eventually began to negatively affect her college teammates. Alicia spent ten years coaching, learning slowly year by year how to build a strong program when it all came crashing down in an epic meltdown during a postseason game they should have won. Both experiences led to the same conclusion: something had to change.

We made a commitment to getting better at developing mental toughness that lasted. We continued our education, getting master’s degrees in Sport Psychology and Coaching Sport Performance, respectively. We read books, listened to podcasts, found quotes and even came up with ways to implement the mental game on the field during practice.

As each season passed, we got better and better. We got more efficient and effective with our mental training sessions. We began by talking about the intangibles and grew to implementing it every day, all season. The amount of growth our players showed on the field convinced that this was the key to success and making a lasting impact on our players.

We want to help you get to this point even faster.

Instead of spending all of your time and energy finding resources on your own, we want to give you a proven system that teaches ALL of the fundamentals of the mental game. Whether you’re just learning these concepts and want to know where to start… Or you’ve been talking mental toughness for a while but know there’s got to be a better way… We’ve got you!

We believe building a strong team is like building a house. You need the right architect (you!), a solid blueprint, the best tools, and a crew to help you build and make adjustments as you go. If you’re passionate about coaching and giving your best to your girls, we can help you become more than just an instructor for the physical side of the game.

Help your girls find their Mental Sweet Spot faster and start building a legacy of strong young women on and beyond the softball field today!
