Have you ever wondered what separates the pros from the rest? In this episode, former MLB player Simon Pond shares how taking ownership of his mental game—not just physical talent—changed everything. From falling flat in front of thousands to coaching the next generation, we talk performance pressure, self-talk, and the power of surrender. If you've ever struggled with fear, failure, or not feeling “enough,” this one’s for you.
Simon Pond played professional baseball from 1994 to 2006, including a season in the MLB and representing Team Canada in the 2004 Olympics. He played for six different organizations before retiring and starting his own company in 2010. Today, he’s a proud husband and dad to teenage girls—and stays grounded by treating himself like an animal that needs to move.
