Programs
The work is not in the book. The book describes the work.
Here is where you do it.
All programs and sessions are delivered via Zoom. No travel required. Connor Elite Performance System works entirely through conversation, guided rehearsal, and the specific practices that build nervous system familiarity with a new identity.
FOR COMPETITIVE SWIMMERS
- Individual Sessions
- Personalized Magical Mind Process™ sessions targeting your specific identity patterns
- Pre-race identity work and visualization protocols built around your events and your nervous system
- Address anxiety, self-doubt, choking under pressure, and the gap between practice and competition

- Each session builds on the last. Most swimmers notice a shift within the first two sessions.
