the Learn-It-All™ podcast With Damon Lembi and Dr. Haley Perlus on Sport & Performance Psychology

Date Published: October 27, 2026 | Author: the Learn-It-All™ podcast With Damon Lembi

Dr. Haley Perlus is a performance psychologist who helps business leaders and elite athletes apply the mental strategies of top performers. When leaders insist that failure isn’t an option, they often tighten up, micromanage, and second-guess every move. Dr. Haley explains why that happens and what to do instead. She also covers how to tell the difference between discipline and rigidity, why the kindest thing a leader can be is direct, and why mental toughness is really about working with whatever shows up.
