Curiosity calms what judgment clenches. In this episode of the Clinicians Series, Dr. Graham Taylor speaks with Jon Steele, LMFT—a licensed marriage and family therapist who specializes in working with high performers, including athletes and professionals navigating intense pressure. Drawing from his own experience as a former collegiate athlete, Jon brings a deep understanding of both the competitive mindset and the emotional toll it can take. In his private practice, Jon supports clients through anxiety, trauma, grief, addiction, and the pursuit of mental fitness. His work centers on dismantling shame, cultivating self-compassion, and developing sustainable strategies for resilience. Together, we explore the quiet power of curiosity—how shifting from self-judgment to self-inquiry can unlock healing, clarity, and true growth. Whether you're on the field, in the boardroom, or simply striving to perform at your best, this conversation offers a meaningful path forward.
