Ep. 112: Nicole Davis – An Olympian Mindset to Uncertainty

This conversation is all about mindset. How do you train your mind? How do you mentally approach uncertainty? Meet Nicole Davis.

Nicole is a retired volleyball player who excelled at the highest levels in the sport. That means the Olympics, where she was a silver medallist in the 2008 Beijing games and again four years later at the 2012 London games. She has played professionally in Europe and for the University of Southern California (USC) where she won back-to-back national championships in 2003 and 2004.

Now Nicole is a professional mindset coach with Compete to Create, a company founded by Super Bowl-winning coach Pete Carroll and prominent high-performance psychologist Dr. Michael Gervais. Nicole is a fantastic part of what is an amazing group that is leading the way in mindset training for individuals and organisations. Her insights are rooted in deep experience and understanding.
