The voice you use with yourself can either get you back in the game or take you out of it. Positive self-talk is not about ignoring mistakes - it is about choosing the right inner teammate for the moment, learning from what happened, and moving forward with purpose.
In Episode 8 of Athletes at Law, Todd Burnham and Phil McCarthy explore where our inner voices come from, how coaches, parents, mentors, and teammates shape the way we speak to ourselves, and why high performers need to become better teammates to themselves. They discuss the difference between useful accountability and destructive self-criticism, the 'goldfish mindset' for resetting after mistakes, and how mentorship and leadership can strengthen the voices we carry into difficult moments.
Whether you're an athlete, attorney, leader, parent, coach, or professional working through pressure and setbacks, this episode offers a practical framework for building healthier self-talk, recovering faster, creating momentum, and helping the people around you do the same.
