9. Dr. Alicia Naser: How Elite Athletes & Entrepreneurs Train Their Brain To Win At The Highest Level

In this episode of the Built Different Podcast, Avo sits down with Dr. Alicia Naser, board certified behavior analyst and Founder and CEO of The Naser Institute for Behavioral Sports Psychology. Dr. Naser works with elite performers including NHL players, professional athletes, and executives, using behavioral science to build repeatable mental skills under pressure. They break down a simple but powerful idea: mindset is a behavior. Your thinking patterns directly shape your actions, your performance, and your results. Dr. Naser explains why "being positive all the time" is not the answer, and why the real goal is emotional stability and quick emotional recovery, especially when setbacks hit. You'll learn tactical tools like the "penalty box" reset for intrusive thoughts, how to ask the question "How is what I'm doing right now helping me," and why the brain needs proof. Dr. Naser shares why high performers build a written evidence list of wins, results, and impact to prevent catastrophizing. They also connect these concepts to real estate and entrepreneurship: deals fall apart, personalities clash, and outcomes can flip fast. The advantage is not avoiding adversity, it's training for it before it arrives. Dr. Naser closes with what she'd focus on with a top 1 percent agent: self awareness, communication and delivery, empathy, curiosity, and learning not to take everything personally.
