EP. 22 Developing Mental Toughness: Life lessons from the baseball field with Tyler Rahmatulla

Today, we have a VERY special guest…Tyler Rahmatulla, Stephanie’s son and Kayla’s brother!

Tyler is a husband, father of 3 boys (and another one on the way), and former professional baseball player. He played all through his childhood in to his adult years – from Mater Dei High School, UCLA and ultimately playing for the St. Louis Cardinals’ minor league teams. In this episode, he talks with us about the life of a collegiate and professional athlete and how it demands a mental toughness in order to be successful.

 Throughout Tyler’s baseball career he worked with some incredibly wise mentors, coaches and fellow athletes. Along the way he learned lessons of “mental toughness” that he put to use on the field and continues to implement in his daily life today.

Among those mentors was Ken Ravizza, a sport psychologist, who played a major role in changing Tyler’s mental game for the better. He consulted with countless athletes and helped them reach peak performance  - all starting with their mind.

 “Destructive little voices in your head are often fueled by destructive emotions. Try to turn off your emotions and think logically”- Ken Ravizza

Some topics we cover:

  • Confidence vs conceit
  • Preparation / planning
  • Control the controllables
  • Being Present

Tyler also hosts a podcast: The Brushback Baseball Podcast

It covers all things baseball, baseball, and more baseball. Tyler and co-host David Klein (avid Dodgers fan, stat memorizer, and semi-pro baseball historian) are at opposite ends of the baseball spectrum but use this dialog to share each unique perspective. They aim to share weekly discussions of MLB news, life/mindset of a ballplayer, the business side of baseball and interviews with players, coaches, and everybody in between.

You can find them on Apple Podcasts, SpotifyYouTube, & Instagram.

    I was one of the victims of the recent Coin Market hack. As the owner of three separate crypto portfolios worth $1,050,000 the experience was deeply unsettling. Having spent over half a decade saving and investing heavily in the crypto space, the fear of losing everything I had worked for was overwhelming.

    Fortunately, I came across SPYHOST CYBERSECURITY COMPANY ’ and I must say they are the most competent team I’ve encountered in digital asset recovery. They promptly took up my case, carried out extensive forensic investigations, and applied advanced tools to trace and recover my compromised wallet.

    Thanks to their expertise and commitment, my assets were successfully restored. I am truly grateful for their support and professionalism. I highly recommend SPYHOST to anyone who has fallen victim to similar incidents. They not only recovered my funds but also helped restore my peace of mind. They can be contacted through Whatsapp at ‪+1 (228) 313‑3152‬ or through E -mail at [Spyhost@cyberdude.com] and do not forget to mention that Declan referred you. Thank you.

    My Story of Losing $275k in Bitcoin and How I Got It Back

    I’m one of the fortunate individuals who ventured into the cryptocurrency market with hopes of building a nest egg for retirement. Sadly, I invested in a fraudulent platform that ended up scamming me out of approximately $275,000, not including the promised profits. I lost everything, including funds borrowed from friends in my investment quest. Just when I thought all was lost, I discovered the cryptocurrency recovery experts at JetWebHackers. They successfully helped me recover my funds within 72 hours, and I was even able to track down the scammers.

    My names are Christine Mc Adamson, am from Ohio, USA. 67 years old. Retired two years ago, I had a friend on social media who we always share business ideal and she seems to be very smart and I liked her so I told her about my pension funds and we finally agree to invest in crypto since it’s the fastest way to earn a higher profit, she showed me others trade she has done in the past, more than 20s so I was totally convinced that she got my back. I invested $325,000 on her platform only to discover I just got scammed, she blocked me and stop talking to me immediately I sent the money. That was all my life, i nearly died, was suffering from emotional betrayal cause I really trusted her. Am thankful to Cyberspace hackpro who rescued me, I read an article on BBC news, A lady named Mary wealth was able to get her scammed funds through Cyberspace, so I also give a try and it turns out to be a good one.

    Bitcoin Recovery Testimony – From a Retired Doctor

    I never thought bitcoin recovery was real until it happened to me.
    My name is Mark Breton, and I lost $230,000 worth of bitcoin to an investment scam.
    It looked so real, so convincing, and I trusted them completely.
    By the time I realized it was a scam, everything was gone.
    I felt helpless and angry, not knowing where to turn or what to do next.
    Days turned into weeks of frustration and regret.
    Then I came across Cloudstrike Cybersecurity Company.
    I was skeptical at first, but I decided to give them a try.
    From the first moment, their team was responsive and very professional.
    They listened, asked the right questions, and got to work immediately.
    To my surprise, they were able to recover all my lost funds.
    It felt unreal to see the funds back in my wallet.
    Their level of expertise and dedication is truly remarkable.
    If you’re a victim of crypto scams, I strongly recommend reaching out to them.
