I have a gift for you and it's exclusive for our Skool members: The new 39-minute Confidence Mini-Course for swim parents is here!! It shows swim parents exactly what they can start doing TODAY to help build their swimmer's confidence - especially on race day!! (...without having to do much extra cuz you're busy 😊) It's available for free until Friday evening (May 29) here on Skool. 👉 Comment "GIFT" in the comments below and I'll DM you access as soon as I'm online again. After Friday, I'll move the Mini-Course to the Premium membership for $9. 👋 If we haven't met yet... Hi, I'm David Karasek and I'm a former Olympian and Swiss record holder in the 200m IM. I got lucky at the end of my career because I had the opportunity to work 1:1 with the sports psychologist of Michael Phelps… and it changed EVERYTHING in my life! I created this community for swim parents of competitive swimmers who want the best for their child, and inside you now get the 39-Minute Confidence Mini-Course, which includes: ✅ The "Gap vs Gain" lens: The 1-second brain choice 95% of swim parents make wrong at every meet, even when they don't say a word (Dan Sullivan named this 40 years ago — almost no swim parent has heard of it) ✅ The 400-kid Stanford praise study: The exact kind of praise that makes competitive teen swimmers QUIT faster when sets get ugly… and most parents use it daily without realizing ✅ The "4 Cs Cycle": Why "you've got this, sweetie!" bounces off, and the 1 stage you've been pouring all your energy into for years that doesn't actually move the needle ✅ The 4 sources of confidence - ranked - verbal praise comes in dead last. The strongest one isn't anything you say. (Hint: a 9:30pm bedtime does more work than any "good luck" text on race morning) ✅ The 2-line dinner-table swap: Drop "you crushed it" tonight. Replace with the exact words that build a Practice Champion AND a Race Day Champion (it works on the drive home too)

We're live in 25mins from now. This will be a VERY special session in the sense that I suspect you'll leave with insights you wish you had 5 years ago to support your kid in reducing screen time and do something that actually benefits them in the long-term. And you can apply these insights starting from today!!! See ya shortly, Zoom details in the Swimpros Calendar. I'm on Zoom 15mins early to answer questions or hang out.
