The Co-Founders of Hone Athletics have dedicated their lives to helping professional athletes on the mental fitness journeys. Jessica Renney grew up with a unique perspective of the game having spent most of her life close to the NHL and witnessing the importance of mental fitness to pro players, and Paula McQuaid serves as a mental performance consultant for Hockey Canada's Women's u-18 National team. She has won two golds, silver and bronze medals with the team in IIHF World Championships since 2018.

They join us this week to share about the creation of Hone Athletics, which enables coaches to better grasp their players' mental health and aid them in reaching their fullest potential. We explore the significance of person-centered coaching and how emotional awareness can dramatically alter an athlete's performance. 

We do a deep-dive into the importance of mental health in professional sports and address the necessity for self-assessment before leading others, how to cultivate a positive sports culture, as well as the rising significance of mental health.
