2022 Houston Texans

Special Teams

I began working with Kai Imi in his 2022 season, as a top-level kicker in The NFL for the Houston Texans. Playing college football at UCLA he was first-team All-American as a senior and was awarded the Lou Groza Award as the nation’s top college kicker in 2015.

Already a highly accomplished NFL kicker, he wanted to take his pro career to the next level -The best elite athletes are always looking to advance their mental/physical abilities to be their best. Being a kicker in the NFL is a high-pressure position that requires the highest level of mental toughness and focus.

Our work included performance tools and strategies to maximize an optimistic mind, being present (mindfulness), getting into a flow state, self-compassion, and A-GAME activation. All to maximize his mindset every time he steps on the field and in life. Within a few weeks he next leveled his performance by kicking a career-long 61-yard field goal vs. the Seahawks, which set a Texans’ franchise record and the 5th longest field goal in NFL history.

It is a pleasure to work with Kai-Imi- He is highly talented, coachable, hardworking and very focused to be his best!

Carter Tucker
High School Baseball

Carter is a 15 year old high school freshman baseball and football player. His parents reached out to discuss how I could help his confidence on the field and improve his performance. After my initial interview with him he was a perfect candidate for the A-GAME program. Committed to working on his mindset, he shared his goal of being a D1 college baseball player. He felt that he could improve his self-confidence, inner dialogue and focus. These are the number one issues that most developing athletes face.

A motivated and dedicated Carter quickly started using the tools and strategies to increase his confidence and performance.

• Quickly earned a starting role as a freshman on the varsity team
• Now is rated number 1 academically in his class

His confidence and performance continue to grow each week. I’m excited to see what the future bring for this talented student athlete.
