122. Winning the Mental Game with Katie Hollingsworth

This week, I’m so excited to be joined by Katie Hollingsworth, ICF-certified professional coach, mental performance expert, and founder of Krave Coaching. Katie has worked with athletes, entrepreneurs, and leaders from rodeo, wrestling, and football to collegiate and pro athletes. She brings a one-of-a-kind blend of grit, neuroscience, and real-life western world experience to her coaching.With two decades in marketing, communications, and PR, plus years spent in the arena as a coach for the Oklahoma State Rodeo Team and Western Sports Foundation, Katie knows what it takes to perform under pressure and lead with clarity. She’s helped hundreds of people sharpen their focus, overcome self-doubt, and unlock a competitive edge, and in this episode, she brings that insight to you.We talk about redefining success through different life stages, navigating burnout, and the moment Katie realized her own workaholic tendencies weren’t serving her or her family. We also explore how mindset shapes performance, how to build internal self-trust, and what it looks like to parent kids in a way that nurtures healthy self-talk.Whether you’re leading a team, raising a family, or working on your own goals, this conversation is packed with clarity, encouragement, and actionable tools.Resources & Links:Mind Gym by Gary MackWith Winning in Mind by Larry BasshamYou Are a Badass by Jen Sincero Patrick Lencioni booksJoin The Directory Of The WestGet our FREE resource for Writing a Strong Job Description Get our FREE resource for Making the Most of Your InternshipEmail us at [email protected] to Of The West's ⁠NewslettersList your jobs on ⁠Of The West Connect with Katie:Follow on Instagram: @kravecoachingFollow on Facebook: @kravecoaching Visit her websiteConnect with Jessie:Follow on Instagram @ofthewest.co and @mrsjjarvFollow on Facebook @jobsofthewestCheck out the Of The West website Be sure to subscribe/follow the show so you never miss an episode!
