Business Leaders of America Podcast Featuring Joshua Lifrak Director of Performance and Coaching at Limitless Minds Episode Overview In this episode of the Business Leaders of America Podcast, we sit down with Joshua Lifrak, a mental performance coach who has spent more than two decades helping elite athletes, executives, and high-performing teams perform at their best under pressure. From professional sports organizations to executive leadership teams, Joshua’s work focuses on building the mindset, focus, resilience, and daily habits required to sustain success over time. Joshua previously served as the Director of Mental Skills for the Chicago Cubs during their historic 2016 World Series Championship run and later became the Major League Mental Skills Coach for the New York Mets. Throughout his career, he has worked with world-class performers across professional baseball, golf, tennis, motorsports, and corporate leadership environments. In this conversation, Joshua breaks down what mental performance coaching actually looks like behind the scenes and why high performance is less about perfection and more about presence. He shares lessons from inside championship organizations, explains the concept of neutral thinking, and discusses why communication, trust, and culture are often the real differentiators in elite teams. Joshua also dives into the philosophy behind his book, WIN TODAY, including the six-step framework he developed to help people improve performance one day at a time. From handling adversity and emotional pressure to building stronger relationships and more focused leadership habits, this episode offers practical insights that apply far beyond sports.
