063 - A World-Class Violinist's Tips for Peak Performance (with Hilary Hahn)

Hilary Hahn first picked up a violin when she was 3, and made her major orchestral debut at 12. Now in her forties, she has spent four decades playing, and more than thirty of those years playing with some of the best orchestras in the world. Over that time, she has gathered some—actually, A LOT of—wisdom about what goes into an elite performance. Though her experience is in music, her tips are accessible and useful for all levels of performers across all disciplines: how to stack your training so that you peak at the right moment; what to do when your brain betrays you in the middle of a performance; how to work with the performance you're having rather than struggling to make it fit some prior expectation; how to motivate yourself positively rather than with negative threats; how to trust the wisdom that's stored in your body; and on and on. It's an absolute masterclass in how to perform at your best.Join The Growth Equation Academy today. 40% off for a limited time!https://the-growtheq-academy.mn.co/If you are enjoying FAREWELL, do us a huge favor: text your favorite episode to three people so they can enjoy it, too.
