#143 - Confidence Pt 4: Breath, Reset, Recover: Building Confidence You Can Trust

7 Oct 2025 · 33 min

In this episode of the Coaching Minds Podcast, Ben Carnes, founder of The Mental Training Plan, breaks down the next layer of the Confidence Wall: how to train confidence like a muscle.

Learn practical, science-backed tools that help athletes hardwire belief into their body and nervous system through three powerful bricks:

• The Breath Brick – how controlled breathing regulates the vagus nerve and restores focus. • The Reset Brick – how pros like Drew Brees and Victor Oladipo flush mistakes and get back in rhythm. • The Recovery Brick – why sleep, rest, and recovery are the secret advantage most athletes ignore.

Whether you’re a coach, athlete, or parent, you’ll walk away with real tools you can use to help your athletes perform under pressure and bounce back stronger after mistakes.
