Balcony People and Basement Moments: Insights from a Mental Toughness Coach, Dr. Rob Bell
In this edition of the Shadows Podcast, we are honored to host Dr. Rob Bell, a distinguished sports psychology expert, mental toughness coach, and the accomplished author of seven books.
Dr. Bell shares a pivotal chapter from his life, recounting his freshman year of college when a night of revelry took a harrowing turn. Falling off an 80-foot cliff became a transformative "hinge moment" that redirected his path. Remarkably, he was craned out of the situation and back in class by Monday. Simultaneously, another life-altering incident, a drunk driving accident, occurred in the same year, propelling Dr. Bell towards a Psychology class that would profoundly change the trajectory of his life.
Join us as Dr. Bell explores the fascinating realms of mental toughness, introduces the concept of "basement and balcony people," delves into the intricacies of coaching, and unravels the motivations behind his prolific literary contributions. Discover the incredible journey that led Dr. Rob Bell from the edge of a cliff to becoming a renowned figure in the field of sports psychology.
