Now I feel not just confident, but very convicted of who I am.
Transform your performance by overcoming mental blocks, learning how to get into flow states, and optimizing your central nervous system.
Now I feel not just confident, but very convicted of who I am.
You really helped turn my life around in terms of soccer.





Her confidence was below zero… She has been offered a college scholarship… What a change we saw in her this year!
My son has been working with Alex and EMP for the past six months. Mental performance is often overlooked but has proven to the most important aspect of his preparation…
We have been working with Alex for about 5 months and the transformation to our team is palpable.
His goal was under 5:30… he ran a 5:27. The key was that he changed his mental approach.

He thought his soccer life was over… The first time he spoke to you, he came out of the room a totally changed person.
He did NOT want to have anyone tell him how to breathe… It's one of his greatest tools now.
The academy director called a meeting to let us know how much he's matured since last season.

I wouldn't have had the breakout season I had without you.
Pitching today for the first time in 408 days… topped 87, which was my top before I got hurt.
Tied my 3k PR today! Was very focused and confident.

Now I'm prepared to meet any challenge.
I just wanted to let you know that I made the varsity team for my high school.
The breathing helps a lot.
In college, Alex was a D1 goalkeeper at Creighton. Then his game fell apart. He dropped crosses and fumbled shots. He lost his starting spot twice.
Now he's a certified coach for the mental side of sports. He helps athletes in every sport, from teenagers to pros, fix what he couldn't fix back then.

Find the trailhead. Tell Alex where pressure gets to you, or to your athlete.
Map the trail. See which mental paths are blocked and which are strong, across the 4 Pillars of Mental Mastery.
Clear the brush. Short daily drills start wearing in a new path.
Pave it. Over video, Alex uses new mental models and nervous-system tools to rewire how you think under pressure. Weekly check-ins keep you on track between sessions.
Open the highway. The right response gets fast and automatic. Then map the next level.
Competitive athletes 14 and older, in any sport. Swimmers, runners, golfers, tennis players, fighters, riders and team-sport athletes. High school, college, pro and adult competitors. Parents often book for younger athletes.
No. It's coaching, not therapy, so insurance doesn't apply. Payment plans are available.
Bring them to the free consultation. Alex played D1, and he talks to athletes like a coach. Your athlete can see if it clicks.
100% online. Sessions happen over video, so you can train from home, a hotel or the road to your next event.
Most athletes see real change in about 90 days. By 6 months, it starts to feel natural, and the skills stay with you for your whole career.
If it’s a fit, you start with onboarding and your Mental Scouting Report. Then you work 1:1 with Alex over video, with weekly check-ins between sessions and a short daily protocol. Every few months you re-score and set the next goal.
It's 30 minutes over video. You tell Alex what's going on and he asks a few questions. Alex locates your mental performance bottleneck, and you leave with one drill to use before your next competition. If ongoing coaching is a fit, you start that together.
