Zoe Sayetta is a youth and adult climbing coach in New York and she has her masters in sport psychology. She loves working with youth, especially on their mindset, and she has a private practice as a sport psychology coach for youth and adults. I asked her to be on the show so we could talk about the most common things she sees in her team and her clients and how she helps them all have a healthier, more productive mindset in climbing.

Here’s what we talked about:

• How to foster growth mindset vs fixed mindset
• How to deal with emotional regulation in teens
• How to teach kids (or anyone) to try hard
• Productive vs unhealthy self-talk
• How to coach someone to want success but not identify with it
• Social comparison
• Imposter syndrome
• Using visualization for physical and emotional practice
• Lots more
