Speaker: Alina Weidlich, Crossfitter
What problems you were looking to solve by getting a mental coach?
Alina Weidlich: Hello, my name is Alina. I'm a professional crossfitter and I'm the current reigning world champion of functional fitness in masters category. But before I started the flow mindset, I literally felt despair of myself and my performance and performed well below my training levels at competitions. And sometimes I even became last and now I can laugh about it. But at this point, it was not funny, I tried everything to get rid of it but failed for years. And at some point, I was faced the decision of stopping the sports or seeking for professional help. Um because I love what I may do every single day, but in competitions, it became a torture and what I was seeking for is to be able to enjoy it again. And of course, see what I'm actually capable of.
Describe what has happened as a result from working with Tommy?
Alina Weidlich: Working with Tommy was in the first place. Surprising because I expected to get rid of my problems and to develop a higher self confidence. But instead I got to know myself better. And above all, learn to accept myself the way I am I already am. And the program is more about learning a certain attitude towards life that helps you not only in exceptional, but also in everyday situations. And so I have become more balanced and I know what is important to me.
How would you describe Tommy as a coach?
Alina Weidlich: Tommy is not what you expect. He has come a long way and has probably experienced all the shit in life that you can possibly experience. But that's what made him the person who he is today. And he lets us participate in the knowledge he collected in his journey. And he also follows a scientific approach to his program that is far away from any esoteric arbitrariness, which I personally like very much. And the question you should ask yourself is who could be a better teacher than the one who knows where you are at.
How does Tommy compare to other similar services you've used?
Alina Weidlich: You can't compare Tommy. He's unique. But what's special is that he doesn't pretend to be someone he isn't.
What would you say to someone who is considering if they should join one of Tommy's programs?
Alina Weidlich: I started with Tommy out of sheer desperation because no other mindset coach and no other teacher could help me. And I wish there would have been someone like me telling you right now that there are ways and that it's worth listening. Not always to the loud people, but sometimes to the very quiet ones because they have so much to say and they accept your heart and your soul and your mind as they are. And in the flow mindset, you will meet people that are the same way. So take this step for yourself and make it worth it to yourself. And one of the most important sentences to me is I'll do it now and my recommendation to you is do it, just do it, you won't regret it.
