“Lewis Hatchett achieved one of the most gloriously defiant careers in the history of county cricket…” – ESPN Cricinfo

The day I was born I wouldn’t play any sports, because I was diagnosed with Poland Syndrome (PS).

In 2010, I achieved my childhood dream of becoming a professional cricketer.

However, that all changed pretty quickly.

After suffering a spine injury, I had to make the decision to retire in 2016 at 26 years old.

And I was left asking myself some pretty big questions such as:

Who am I? What do I want to do? What is it all for?

So over the next 5 years I went on an inward journey of reflection and curiosity.

Which lead me to coaching athletes, organisations and students.

And I realised. Everyone was struggling with similar issues. Lacking confidence, inner critics, perfectionism, self doubt and trying to find a balance of their achievement with fulfilment.

Many of us are trying to find a strength of mind but also the courage to be vulnerable.

And so on my journey I found that in order to let go of these restraints and learn to play the cards we’ve been dealt requires controlling what you can, a commitment to reframing the story you tell yourself and write a new positive affirmation based one. 

Drawing from both the professional athlete, and human experience to understand that to unlock the part of you you’ve always wanted requires a dedicated focus and effort.

That’s where I began to build the MindStrong Mindset that has three key chapters:

Confidence in who you are,

Resilience to be unafraid to fail,

Perspective to find your way.

Leading me to build the MindStrong Mindset Course and Community.
