The Metta Performance Podcast kicks off by introducing a coaching philosophy that blends compassion with high achievement—so you can perform in work, sport, and life without flaming out. Holly, Michael, and Sean unpack what “Type A+” really means, why process beats outcome, and how to avoid comparison traps, celebrate small wins, and build sustainable performance that lasts. Key takeaways: What “Type A+” means without titles or podiums. Why “hustle-only” leads to burnout—and what to do instead. How to design sustainable performance across work, sport, life. Process > outcome: control what’s controllable. The comparison trap (and practical reframes to escape it). Micro-celebrations: using “singles” to sustain motivation. Sets & reps for the mind: actionable mental training. Coping with bad sessions and switching gears for work. Balancing multiple identities (parent, pro, athlete, leader). Simple reflection prompts to turn lessons into habits.
