Identity: Personal identity is the foundation of our life. It determines how we think, live, and interact with the world around us. When we fully understand who God created us to be, we will become all that we are capable of becoming. We will walk into our lives, our sport, and our spheres of influence with confidence and make great impact in the lives of those around us. We will experience more success in all areas of life, and we will be able to overcome failures and setbacks, as they will no longer have the power to define who we are.

Mindset: Mindset is the second piece of the foundation on which our lives are built. It is the ultimate driver of our thoughts, behaviors, and ability to perform. Not only do we need to cultivate the right perspectives and thought patterns, but we also need to understand the root causes of issues like performance anxiety, burnout, and other mental health challenges. 7Pillar offers high-level mental training tools that will help you perform at your peak and experience confidence, consistency, and stability in your life and sport.

Lifestyle: Lifestyle is the culmination of our identity and mindset. It is how we live out our personal beliefs, and it is the standards we hold ourselves accountable to. After we intentionally build a strong foundation, we must allow these beliefs to infiltrate every area of our life. If we don’t, we will be missing out on the fullness of life that is available to us. 7Pillar is a way of living that allows us to reach and sustain our potential, first as a human, and then as an athlete.

Relationships: Relationships are the currency of life. We will only truly thrive as people and as athletes if we learn to develop meaningful, healthy relationships. When we intentionally surround ourselves with the right people, we will grow into the best versions of ourselves and make the greatest impact on the world around us.

Nutrition: Food is much more than fuel. When we choose to nourish our bodies with the most nutrient-dense, life-giving foods we will experience optimal health, energy, and vitality. In today’s world, consuming cheap, processed foods has become the norm but has left us chronically sick, injured, tired, inflamed, and stressed. Developing a deep understanding of how food impacts our bodies and utilizing practical, science-backed nutrition tools will give us a tremendous boost to our overall health and athletic performance.

Fitness: Movement is medicine. Exercise offers numerous benefits, including improvements in strength, speed, endurance, cognitive function, mood, injury prevention, and more. There is no one size fits all method, but an effective fitness program will include strength training, speed and agility work, cardiovascular training, and mobility.

Recovery: Recovery is an often overlooked but crucial aspect of overall health and elite performance. For us to maximize our abilities and live in an optimal state, we must maintain a balance between stress and recovery. In other words, we can only grow stronger if we are able to adapt to the demands of competition and training. These adaptations do not happen while we work, but rather when we recover. A complete recovery program includes sleep, rest, breathwork, and other biohacking essentials.
