Nobody feels ready. Not elite athletes before competition. Not doctors before a high-stakes exam. Not leaders before the moment that defines them.Psychologist Lisa Martin has spent her career working with people at the edge of their performance. Her finding: readiness isn't a feeling you arrive at. It's a practice you build. The people who perform when it counts aren't calm because they're confident. They're composed because they know how to come back to themselves when pressure hits.Lisa and Andrew unpack what readiness actually requires: self-awareness, flexibility, and the willingness to sit with discomfort rather than run from it. And the mark of someone who's truly ready? They don't dread the storm approaching. They walk toward it.Find Dr Lisa Martin at: Level One Psychology — https://www.levelonepsychology.com/ LinkedIn — https://au.linkedin.com/in/lisa-martin-phd-506067a Use Code "PQPODCAST10" to get 10% off your Lumo Coffee order:https://lumocoffee.com/ Interested in sharing your story?
