#085 Mental Performance with Tony Silvio
What if the reason you’re stuck isn’t strategy, but the not-so-silent story running rampant in your head?
In this episode of The Real Biz Life Chronicles, I sit down with Tony Silvio, performance coach and founder of Midas Mindset, to unpack the psychology of high performance, real resilience, and how to manage the voice that holds you back.
With a background in teaching and years spent coaching elite athletes and high-performing professionals, Tony brings a grounded, real-world lens to mindset. It’s the practical, mental reset every business owner needs in the thick of pressure, pivots, and big decisions.
This conversation will make you rethink how you prepare for success, how you recover from setbacks, and how actually to train your mind to serve you.
