Developing a Strong Mindset with Athlete and Business Owner Abby Grubbs

In this episode of the Student of The Game podcast, host Brad Noll speaks with his sister Abby Grubbs, a former basketball player and coach. From growing up in a sports-minded family to moving around a lot due to her father's coaching career, Abby talks about the challenges she has faced, including her struggles with orthorexia and how she now defines health. She shares her insights on the importance of self-confidence, discipline, and hard work in achieving success. 

Brad and Abby discuss why having support and coaching is crucial in achieving success in both sports and life, as it makes the journey less challenging.

Quotes

  • “Most nutritionists, health coaches, and dietitians are going to say: eat this many calories, don't eat this, don't eat that. But that never solves anything. And if you aren't in a healthy relationship with yourself, with your body, with your thoughts, there's no way you can get to where you want to be. It all starts with your thoughts.” -Abby Grubbs [26:23]
  • “One thing that I love talking about is stress, because it does not matter where the stress is coming from. Your body doesn't know where it's coming from, but it reacts to it." -Abby Grubbs [24:28]

Profile picture for Brad Noll

Brad Noll

I grew up a Coach's Kid. The locker room was my classroom. I had many successes personally in basketball, but that wasn't the most fulfilling. My best lessons and experiences all came from being on a team. When my Division 1 basketball career was over, my wife and I decided to start a real estate company. Our goal is to share the lessons we've learned thus far so that we can Help Others WIn.

Like most, we struggled our way through. We had ups and downs. We quickly realized that all the lessons we needed to grow our business, we learned through our own personal journey with sports. Now, after 20 years of being in business, we want to bring our successes and failures to the classroom. We aim to bring you interviews of people just like you.

Greatness is already inside you. Student of the Game podcast was created to help you Master the Fundamentals, Fall in Love with Practice, and Win in the Game of Life.
