Basic Overview
Wake Up, Grow up, Clean up and Show up
The point of the arrow in our approach is to work with participants and fully support them in developing their ability to work with their clients and in developing the Mental Skills required for high performance outcomes.
This approach bestows participants with the skills, authority and responsibility to deliver holistic and consistent mental skills outcome with clients.
Ultimately the program is about helping participants to help their clients:
- Waking up
- Growing up
- Cleaning up
- Showing up
Waking up is about the disidentification with the habits of the personality (beliefs, values, identity structures, mental conditioning etc. This enables the presence and mindfulness, through the release of the egoic conditioning of the self and self-structures that limit the client (be they public or high-performance athlete).
Growing up is about maturity - being able to take multiple perspectives under pressure and respond appropriately. The more perspectives you/they can take, the more complexity you/they can hold, the more you/they can influence your environment, and the less influence the environment has upon you, in the face of the pressures that come with both life and elite-level sports.
Cleaning up is about clearing the mental barriers and prior intentions, old beliefs, early value structures and identity structures that get in the way of the achieving high performance outcomes.
Showing up is the enactment of all of the above. It’s where The client self-actualises as they make meaning matter. Here we ground development in contextual appropriation. Abraham Maslow called this self-actualisation.

Gary Baber, Rugby 7s coach and Olympic Gold medalist at Tokyo 2020:
“Shout out to the guys at The Coaching Room, particularly Jay Hedley who helped guide this Fiji 7s team to the heights it reached in Tokyo”.
Most elite athletes and performers like Gary Baber work with mental performance coaches to keep their mental game in check.
So they stay at the top of their game, and not allow mental roadblocks and challenges to derail their progress.
An important part of the mental game athletes work on is – Resilience.
In other words, mental toughness.
If an athlete lacks resilience to overcome challenges and focus on the present, they’re toast.
It’s no different to you and your clients.
When a client comes to you, they may lack the resilience needed to overcome challenges and setbacks due to old habits, beliefs, and mental roadblocks.
As a coach, resilience is a trait you should constantly be working on for yourself and your clients.
Because when challenges hit, it’ll make your job easier as a coach running your business, and help your clients stay on track so they’re 100% engaged on the fitness journey.
