#42: Shock the World: The Mindset Behind Elite Performance with Steve Mellor
Today’s guest knows what it takes to perform at the highest level. Steve Mellor went from being a world-ranked swimmer and coach of an Olympic athlete, to becoming an executive coach trusted by CEOs, entrepreneurs, and elite performers across the globe.
He’s the author of Shock the World: A Competitor’s Guide to Realizing Your Potential, and he brings a powerful message; that the pursuit of your optimal self begins not with perfection, but with purpose, self-awareness, and the courage to be growth ready.
In this episode, Steve and I explore what it really takes to build a mindset for sustained performance, how the principles of athletic excellence translate to leadership and business, and why the best performers never stop learning who they can become.
Whether you’re leading a team, chasing a big goal, or redefining what high performance means to you, this conversation will challenge and inspire you to keep reaching for your own version of greatness.
Steve’s story is a reminder that greatness isn’t about chasing perfection, it’s about showing up fully, courageously, and intentionally every day.
