Blind Faith

This week on The Mental Health Playbook:

Welcome to Coach Trav’s Mental Health Playbook: The Athlete’s Journey to Self-Discovery, a podcast dedicated to empowering athletes to embrace their identity beyond the game. This show is a safe space where professional, collegiate, and high school athletes are encouraged to explore their purpose, share their stories, and take pride in who they are as individuals. Athletes are more than the “”””machines”””” they’re often portrayed as—they are people with unique gifts, passions, and aspirations beyond their sport.

In this episode, we’re breaking down what mental toughness really is and how it ties into blind faith. Can you keep pushing when you don’t see results right away? Do you really know what it means to trust the process when nothing is guaranteed?
I’m sitting down with Liberty University Defensive Back, Eli Auguste, who’s got an incredible story about betting on himself, walking on, and eventually earning a scholarship. His journey is all about faith, perseverance, and staying locked in, even when the future was unclear.
