You already have what you need. This book helps you learn to trust it.
After decades working with NBA athletes, Olympians, musicians, and corporate leaders, Tom Mitchell Ph.D. has come to believe something simple, but powerful: The best coach you'll ever have is the one inside you.
In Embrace Your Inner Coach, Tom shares personal stories and field-tested practices from a lifetime of performance coaching, not to give you a system to follow, but to help you build your own.
You won't find hype here. No "ten steps to success." Instead, you'll be invited to slow down, reflect, and begin asking better questions... the kind that helps you tune in, reset, and move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
Inside, you'll explore:- A simple framework for coaching yourself through challenge and change.
- Practices to help you reconnect with your strengths and purpose.
- Tools for building confidence, handling pressure, and leading with presence.
- A quiet, steady path toward growth that's rooted in reflection, not perfection.
Whether you're leading others or learning to lead yourself, this book offers something rare: a grounded, practical companion for becoming who you already are.
