You know your real level. You've been there: the day everything was good and you performed exactly like you're capable of.
And you know the other days when you were not feeling your greatest and you walked into the competition, or moment that matters for your future. But you couldn't play or perform at your level. It sucked and you walked away thinking "that wasn't me".
Here's the reality: after enough of those days where you perform under your own expectations and capability, you start to wonder if maybe it was you.
If maybe this is the ceiling. You've worked harder than most you know so why aren't you further? Why aren't you able to perform at a higher level more consistently and also under pressure?
The answer is not talent. It's not effort. You've never been short on either even if on bad days you think so. You have enough talent, you have worked hard enough.
Part of it goes to how you're doing in the moment: reading the room, scanning for people's reactions, measuring yourself against what you expected or against whoever you're up against, running judgments about whether you're good enough right now.
And part of it starts managing things you normally do without thinking, making you slower, stiffer, feeling late and "not yourself". Feeling like you are in a fog.
Most people can see the external impact: choking/freezing, getting timid and tense, overthinking, or playing safe. Many try to fix it by preparing more or better which is NOT fixing the attention problem happening in the mind.
The good news: this isn't a flaw in you. It's where your attention goes under load. And attention is trainable. Through it, we can bring the light and compass into your foggy moments so you see where you are and know where to go next.
So in this session, you'll learn the 3 root system you can train so next time you'll leave the moment feeling like a winner.

"...changed my life..."
"I felt clear mind in game and focused only on few things as you said. I was calm and confident most of the game, didn't care too much to win but focused point by point. Before game it seemed very hard to stay like this but my self talk was positive and I allowed things to happen as they are. We lost one set that we shouldn't but I didn't focus on that, just my response to circumstances."
"...I should have done this earlier..."
"I always said that sports is 80% mental but i still worked like it was 80% physical.. Now when I started training my mind more consistently, I see the difference. I should have done this earlier and I would have been so much better off.. Truly incredible to see how now my skill and physicality can come to the surface when I am not standing in the way"
"...Found confidence in myself..."
"Breathwork and Saana helped me to find something I thought I had lost forever. A feeling of confidence in myself. Feeling that again was a moment when it all changed for me.. I knew I am still capable. I was just lost for a long time."
"...changed my life..."
“I am so much better in high pressure moments I used to freeze in. The mindset tools have helped me so much and understanding why I tend to panic or stress in bigger moments has changed my life!”

For athletes and professionals who care about what they do and want to be excellent in it. Maybe you also have a moment/phase coming up that matters :
-> What you have in common: you're already good, the stakes are real and visible, you're done with random results and the constant pressure and/or doubt.
-> You want to learn the ultimate 3 root system helping you to fix that.
Being honest saves us both time.
This isn't therapy. If you have serious mental health issues, I'm not qualified to help you.
If you are currently burnt out and maybe looking to just unwind.. This is not the right place.
Also if you imagine that there is one hack you can just hear and then everything changes in your life, don't waste your hour with me. I will tell you to work on things :)

I know the inside of that world, including the parts that don't make any highlight reels ever: a career-ending injury, a club that stopped believing in me, and a long, isolating recovery where the identity I'd built on results was completely gone.
That's when that mess started to turn into my mission. I worked on my mind through new, deeper levels and understood how I was more than my performance, and that the vision based identity was something nobody had taught me.
So now I am a high performance mindset and breathwork coach living in Denver, originally from Finland.
My path to Colorado includes professional volleyball in Europe, a decade of high pressure and high stress environments as an athlete and a coach and now..
the most meaningful job helping other people perform better under even high stress situations while also staying confident, grounded and driven.
My approach comes from a simple idea: peak and peace aren't opposites. The inner calm is what gives you access to the peak. It's a Nordic way of looking at performance: honest & introspective rather than letting the outside world define your value.
It's the antidote to how achievement was previously taught and understood.
I have worked with Olympians, high level and driven professionals and teams across different disciplines, Olympic Committee of Finland, Extended DISC, Volleyball Federation of Finland, Emerge Careers....
And this 3-root system works across them all. Can't wait to walk you through it!! :)
You won't find a pile of bonuses dangled under this to make it feel worth your time. The session itself is worth paying for: it's the same work my clients do inside the program. You're getting it free for one reason: the only way to really understand what's been costing you access is to feel it happen, not to be told about it.

"I've tried the mindset stuff before and it didn't stick."
Most of it is information about performance. We will also make you feel the performance so you'll understand how to make mindset training work for you.
"Is this just breathing exercises?"
Nope, breath is one technique I'll cover and most of it is still teaching. The breathwork technique you'll learn helps settle your inner system so your attention is free to go where you point it. The work is aiming that attention back at the task when the stakes are highest.
"I don't have 60 minutes on that day."
Register, come if you can, and if you can't, make sure to watch the replay :) Making time for this can be the most significant thing for your success this fall.

2027 is almost here. The meetings, the competitions, the goals... They're already on the calendar until the end of the year. Now it's all about how you perform in the last months of this year.
You can walk into these moments the way you walked into the last ones. Or you can spend 60 minutes learning what's been blocking your more consistent high level performance, and learn how to succeed in the important moments this fall.
It's your turn this fall.
Let's make it happen.
