What’s the Price of Peak Performance?
We could be in one of the most mentally challenging times of our lifetime. Some will flourish and others will come to a screeching halt. Why is that? Why do some succeed while others mentally crumble?
The difference - those that mentally transform to meet success do not do it by themselves.
THEY HAVE A COACH -
A BUSINESS & MENTAL HEALTH COACH
49% of entrepreneurs: Affected by mental health challenges
Stress: The number one driver for disease and illness
Your Mind: Mastering your mental game is crucial for success
My Purpose and Commitment
My focus is co-creating a supportive internal narrative. Especially when it comes to mindset, mental health and business performance. The stories we tell ourselves inside of our own heads are often the most distorted. I'm committed to leading by example so that I can guide you to becoming your best and most successful self.

Three Critical Areas for Peak Performance
1. Your Craft: The specific skill or craft that you are pursuing is the most common area of focus for people. Whether it's in business, athletics or any other aspirational competitive field, honing your skills and expertise in your market is critical for success. Life-long learning, deliberate practice, and mastery in your chosen field is important.
2. Your Body: Body awareness is crucial for managing emotions and enhancing business performance. Our body is a canvas for emotions to manifest through subtle cues like posture and facial expressions. Attention to these signals provides insights into our emotional state, enabling us to navigate challenges better. Heightened self-awareness is a powerful tool in business, influencing decision-making, interactions, and leadership effectiveness.
3. Your Mind: Training your mind to develop mental skills such as focus, resilience, self-awareness, and mindfulness is absolutely key. Mastering the mental aspect is crucial for success in any endeavor (including business). This includes practices like visualization, goal-setting, and managing your self-talk or mental chatter.
Chronic Stress and Mental Health
There's enough science that backs this: When you increase stress, you also increase intrusive thoughts. From that, doubt creeps in. When you doubt in your mind, your confidence can overcompensate out of insecurity. That's where the imposter syndrome sucks the life out of you and where people tend to attach their worth to their business performance. They:
-Hide from partners and employees
-Fake smiles in photos
-Isolate from good friends and family
-Have no healthy coping mechanisms
-Numb their brain
All in the face of the stress beating down on them.
You have to...

Monumental Coaching...
Is not a fairytale, promising rainbows and endless sunshine. It’s about embracing the messy, the chaotic, and the downright ugly. It’s about arming yourself for the battle, standing tall even when the ground shakes beneath you. It’s about facing the storm head-on, knowing that you have the power within you to conquer it.
You know running a business or startup is taxing.
If you want to grow your business and also take care of yourself, get support.

About David Boyle
Stress. Pressure. Debt. Responsibility. More success = more power = more destruction. Being vulnerable is out of the question because it doesn't support the narrative people expect from you. They want an unperturbed business genius.
Has the weight of the world ever felt heavier on your shoulders? Have you ever tasted the bitterness of stress and uncertainty, wondering if you can bear the burden any longer? I have. Diagnosed with schizophrenia, I’ve been to the depths of mental torment and have juggled the frenzied chaos of being an entrepreneur. It’s a battlefield out there, and we fight not only with the world but with ourselves.
We glorify the grind and the struggle. "it's supposed to be hard. You're doing it right!" they say....so hard that we don't seek support. Some even push so hard alone that they would rather jump in front of a train or swallow a handful of pills instead of face what's real.
Whether you identify as an entrepreneur, business owner or founder, I know you're under tremendous stress to perform. Success, failure and risk are always jockeying for your attention somewhere in your mind. Your chances of having a mental health condition are much more higher, whether you want to believe it or not, than the general public.
I get it. Let's just talk. No bullshit.
Business Minded Framework
This coaching framework aims to speak directly to the raw emotions and struggles entrepreneurs face, providing a safe space to express and navigate their emotional turmoil while reigniting and redefining success, building resilience, and embracing their unique entrepreneurial journey. This is business coaching and psychology together.
Understanding the Entrepreneurial Turmoil
Understanding the entrepreneurial turmoil gives you clarity, allowing for a strategic and informed approach to your challenges, not some basic how-to. It's an opportunity to validate and address the emotional toll, promoting mental well-being in the midst of such a demanding journey. This is the first step towards implementing effective coping mechanisms & enhancing resilience in the face of relentless pressures.
Recognizing the Battle Within
Recognizing the battle within brings self-awareness, unveiling the source of your inner conflict and turmoil. Acknowledging this paves the way for specific growth, fueling a fire in you to face and navigate your internal struggles. It's a crucial step toward fostering resilience and developing coping strategies to live your life happily amidst the ongoing internal war.
Reframing the Notion of Success
Reframing the general idea of success frees you from society's predefined expectations, allowing for a personalized and more fulfilling journey. It's a mindset shift from the small minded focus on mere achievement to a deeper meaning in your actions. This new perspective opens up real satisfaction and aligns you with what actually matters.
Building Resilience in the Storm
Building resilience in the storm strengthens your spirit, allowing you to endure and bounce back from all the adversities. It gives the grit to face challenges head-on, transforming them into opportunities. This resilience becomes a guiding force, helping you to navigate the tumultuous journey of entrepreneurship with unwavering (and helpful) determination.
Embracing the Journey
Embracing the journey infuses purpose and joy into every step. That mindset allows you to appreciate how far you've come and the experience, transforming even the struggles into valuable life lessons. This "embracing" mindset strengthens your grit and helps you overcome and reach the end-game goal with a sense of accomplishment.
MENTAL TOUGHNESS CULTURE IS DYING
Entrepreneurs, founders and business owners often never consider the consequences of the risks they are assuming. Rather than finding a way out or seeking support, they would rather crack and crumble all alone.
That's the real weakness, not seeking support.
