Chelsea and Kevin sit down with performance psychologist and athlete, Tim Silvestri, to talk about achievement, the psychology behind that and motivation, and how we can take our high achievement/performance mindsets and make it work for us as opposed to adding more stress to our plates!

More About Tim:

Dr. Silvestri earned his Bachelor’s degree from Muhlenberg College and his Doctorate, Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology, from Lehigh University. Dr. Silvestri completed his Psychology Residency at University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Silvestri’s work draws heavily from three main approaches: (1) psychodynamic theory, (2) the integration of neurophysiology into clinical practice, and (3) performance psychology. His focus is to integrate a deep understanding of one’s humanity (neurophysiology and performance psychology) alongside a deep understanding of the unique self (psychodynamic theory) so as to thrive, perform at high levels, and live authentically. He also owns his own company, Impact Being, that seeks to elevate individual’s expertise in areas of neurophysiology and performance so as to perform at the highest levels, positively impact this world in meaningful ways, and to center oneself around being, not doing. Dr. Silvestri believes that we are all unique, but not special. It is by understanding both in our unique selves, while simultaneously understanding our humanity that we can accomplish a life full of meaning, joy, and intimacy.
