Geno Smith | Seattle Seahawks Quarterback on the Power of Self-Belief

For this 30th installment of our popular series Ask Me Anything, Dr. Michael Gervais turns the microphone with co-host Victoria Garrick Browne, Forbes 30 Under 30 recipient, former Division I volleyball player, mental health advocate, and founder of the nonprofit The Hidden Opponent. Together they answer questions submitted by the community on identity, performance anxiety, burnout, and how to raise young people who know they are more than what they do.

Matt Abrahams breaks down what actually happens when we get put on the spot, the two simple tools to use when your mind goes blank, and why learning to see these moments as an opportunity rather than a threat may be one of the most useful skills you can practice.

Ross Szabo breaks down a clear, working definition of mental health, why the more words you have for your feelings the better your mental health becomes, the neuroscience behind coping, and how parents, teachers, and leaders can help young people build mental health skills before they ever reach a crisis point.

Dr. Stacy Sims, exercise physiologist, nutrition scientist, and bestselling author of ROAR and Next Level, joins Dr. Michael Gervais to share why so much of what women have been taught about training and nutrition was built on research that was never done on women, what actually changes during perimenopause and menopause, and how to work with your physiology rather than against it.

Eddie Jones, one of the most accomplished coaches in world rugby, who has led Australia, England, and guided Japan to one of the greatest upsets in the sport's history, joins Dr. Michael Gervais to share how he builds team identity, learns from past mistakes, creates training environments where mistakes become learning, and gets people to become more than they thought they could.
