Todd Herman - Creating New Identities to Achieve Your Goals
Todd Herman describes himself as a science nerd, sports nut, mindset geek, performance junkie, and ass kicker. We refer to him as the world’s greatest salesperson, even winning a contest by that same name. He’s got 22 years of experience in the peak performance space and has seen a lot of things come and go over that time.
He has a knack for coaching people and explains how to be on your best game, whether you are in practice mode or in the real game in front of a crowd and how to get your ideas out of your mind and into the field of play. Todd also goes into depth on how the most important part of grabbing hold of your alter ego is that you want to emotionally connect with it as well as with whoever is your inspiration for your alter ego.
Todd has also coached thousands of people, including top athletes, performers and entrepreneurs over the years and has helped them, sometimes on short notice, to step up their game, both literally and figuratively. He talks about his new book and offers tips on how to access your alter ego to finally become the person that you want to be.
Todd encourages everyone to regain their sense of playfulness that we all had as kids in order to find the zone and tap into your preferred identity as well as creating and maintaining healthy relationships which lead to an overall and meaningful life.
