The mental side of sports often goes unnoticed by most parents and coaches. We started to notice how much it was affecting our daughter—her body language would drop, and she couldn’t handle mistakes internally. One bad moment would carry into the next. Then we discovered Get2 Impact… and it has been a game changer. Her game has made a complete turn. The little mistakes and strikeouts are now just another play. Coach Patience has taught her that mistakes don’t define her and how to reset when they happen. Her confidence, leadership, and overall approach to the game have all grown tremendously. At the end of the day, the hardest part of the game is the mental side—and this is where the biggest difference has been made. If your athlete is struggling mentally, I highly recommend Get2 Impact. It truly is a game changer.

Something I used to struggle with was self talk and body language whenever I would strike out or make a mistake. Things that have been different for me is my body language, self talk and confidence. I have been so much more confident in myself to get through the times I would make a mistake. A mistake does not define me as a player or a person.

As a former professional athlete and now coach, I certainly realize the importance about having the right mindset when performing at a high level . Coach Patience in just a brief period of time has made an overwhelming difference with my daughter’s mental approach on the field which has also transitioned to off the field as well. Like many girls that are playing at a high level there will always be challenging moments throughout a season. Coach Patience has a unique approach to combat failure , while focusing on a winning attitude when faced with tough situations.
Something I used to struggle with was staying confident at the plate and in the field if I did something wrong. I would get down on myself about it and it would affect the rest of the day, or possibly even the whole weekend. However, since I started talking to Coach Patience I stay calm after my mistakes. My head stoped going right to the fact that I failed, and instead staying positive and not letting one mistake define me! I also would get in my head about what others were thinking when I did something wrong. Now I don’t care about it and don’t let other’s opinions bring me up or down! You have been so much help and I really appreciate it!!!!! Thank you for everything!

There’s never been a more critical time to invest in our children—not just in their athletic potential, but in their whole selves. Teach them about lifting others up, being a voice of encouragement, and using their strength to serve others. Get2 is more than a leadership program. It’s a lifeline. It builds self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and inner strength—what we call the self-development pillars—so that when life gets hard (and it will), these young people don’t fold. They rise. The pressures are real—social media, identity, violence, mental health, and a world that doesn’t always make space for them to just be kids. If we don’t stop and put equal focus on the mental and emotional battles they’re facing, then we’re failing them—plain and simple. Get2 provides a safe space/community where those convos can be had, that says it’s okay to not be okay and here’s the path to preserve because you’re not the only one that has self defeating thoughts. That healing, growth, and leadership all start with honesty and vulnerability. This mission is serious. It’s urgent. And it’s changing lives—not just through sports, but through the heart, the mind, and the spirit. If we want stronger communities tomorrow, we start by investing in our kids today—mind, body, and soul. Thank you for allowing my daughter to join the camp!! The time management accountability and confidence was a noticed improvement!!

Having a mental performance coach for our daughter has been one of the most transformative decisions we’ve made-not just for her softball game, but for her life overall. The guidance and tools she has gained have helped her grow in ways we never imagined. One of the most significant changes we’ve noticed is her ability to reset and not let a mistake or moment define her. In the past, she would dwell on errors or setbacks, but now she has learned how to reset, refocus, and move forward with a positive mindset. This skill has not only improved her performance on the field but has also helped her navigate challenges in her daily life with resilience and grace. Coach Patience has also taught her how to set boundaries and understand what “ready” feels like-both mentally and physically. This has empowered her to approach situations with clarity and confidence, whether it’s preparing for a big game or managing her responsibilities off the field. Another profound lesson has been learning how to separate feedback from identity. She now understands that feedback is a tool for growth, not a reflection of her worth. This shift has made her more open to learning and improving , while also building her self-esteem and confidence. The positive changed we’ve seen in her are remarkable. She is much more confident, both as a teammate and as an individual. On the field, she is playing with focus and determination, and off the field, she carries herself with a sense of self-assurance that is inspiring. Her ability to balance her emotions, stay grounded, and support her teammates has made her a stronger player and better person. We are incredibly grateful for the impact Coach Patience has had on her development. The lessons she has learned come far beyond softball-they are skills that will serve her well in every aspect of her future!

I use to struggle with Confidence at the plate and Mental health in general and it waas affecting my playing. Since working with Coach Patience my mindset, my resets, and my mental health is improving. My confidence and body language is expanding extremely well. My mental health used to focus on all the bad and all the past and never let me move past it, but since working with Coach Patience I have become more open and focused to the present and what’s gonna come next. I open more doors and opportunities for me instead of holding back like i used to!
Get2 Impact is an amazing opportunity for young athletes to grow in all the right ways! My daughter started owning her own growth as an athlete, gain more confidence in her young self as a leader, and see that one play, one mistake or one game will never define who she is as a person. Watching Patience and Josh guide the next generation of leaders through fun, sports related discussions and activities is truly inspiring. Katy Burns

"Our daughter Khloe, despite her natural talent in softball, faced significant challenges with the mental aspects of the game. Her shy nature and often misunderstood body language caused frustration, leading to coaches misinterpreting her effort. Comments like 'be more coachable' were heartbreaking for a 9 or 10-year-old. Desperate to foster her holistic development, we enrolled Khloe in the 'Get 2 Impact' courses. She approached the mental training with the same seriousness as physical practice, and the impact has been undeniable. Not only have coaches and parents noted her increased vocal presence and confidence on the field, but we've seen a profound shift in her everyday life. Khloe is now embracing her unique personality, setting clear goals, and actively working to maximize her time. 'Get 2 Impact' truly delivered on its promise, building her mental resilience and helping her flourish both in sports and personally."

My daughter Madi chose to take the 6 week leadership course with Get2impact. She plays softball and struggled with confidence and believing in herself. Through the online video sessions to the workbook, Madi has learned so much about herself and that the game is more than the score. Toward the end of her summer season I felt she had a better presence on the mound, was a better leader to her teammates and carried herself as a much more confident person. She had learned the value in believing in herself, which has also helped her be a better teammate. I would definitely recommend the Get2impact program if you have a child/teen/young adult who plays competitive sports, and not only lacks in confidence but is wanting to play at a higher level.

As a father, it’s been incredible to watch GG grow this summer through the Get2 Impact Academy. The lessons she’s learned, about confidence, mindset, and doing her best without the pressure of perfection, have made a lasting impact. What I’ve appreciated most is the positive community and guided mentorship surrounding her. It’s helped her realize that her value isn’t in titles or outcomes, but in giving her best with the gifts God has given her. I’m so thankful for this program and highly recommend it to any parent looking to support their child’s growth, on and off the field. With gratitude, Rory J. Fulcher
