W.I.N.terview with Carol Yeh-Garner

WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE OUR TRIAD ATHLETES?

The advice I would give the Triad Athlete is to pay attention to your mindset.

You can get the winning edge by putting the right kinds of thoughts in your head along with tons of practice. Instead of thinking of what you don’t want to happen or what you can’t do, focus on what you WANT to happen—outrunning the other team, outmaneuvering your opponent, or scoring the goal.

The subconscious part of your brain takes what you imagine in your mind as truth and will help you perform in the way that you see in your mind.

Professional athletes often use a sports psychologist to help them improve. One of the tricks is to give your brain the image of what you want to see happen.

WHAT MADE YOU CHOOSE YOUR CAREER?

I’ve always loved helping people become the best version of themselves. Being an entrepreneur with a wellness company helps me not only help people take control of their health and wellness, but also help my team achieve their financial goals

YOU ARE A LEADER, WHAT MOTIVATES YOU?

Knowing that I’m helping to improve people’s lives motivates me. Helping my family, my customers or my business people makes me feel so fulfilled.

I’m motivated to keep helping.

Triad Athletes is a San Diego based youth girls lacrosse coaching program with the goal to grow women's lacrosse on the West Coast.
