John Allen Mollenhauer: How to End Performance Anxiety-Ep.96
On this week’s Open Sky Fitness Podcast, Rob had the chance to sit down and talk with John Allen Mollenhaur about how we can end our performance anxiety and begin living a performance lifestyle. For anyone who compares themselves to other people; has an addiction to becoming the best without giving themselves a rest; or is constantly fighting a mental battle about who they are- this is a great interview to listen to today.
It’s a great reminder of the importance of taking care of ourselves: it’s great to have goals, but you need to be gentle with yourself and take care of your body and mind.
