Today is an encore episode with John P. Sullivan, a sport scientist, clinical sport psychologist and co-author of the book, "The Brain Always Wins: Improving Your Life Through Better Brain Management."

John shares why the brain is so important to everything we do and how we can manage it to optimize our performance on and off the field. He shares why we’re wired for performance and how to train our brains for high pressure situations, and how we can learn to manage our energy and focus. His belief is that the brain comes first, and … Like the title of his book says, the brain always win.
