About
Hi. I'm Mark Friedlander - Just like elite athletes train their bodies, I help people train their minds — building the mental foundation for clarity, confidence, and purposeful action.
What if your toughest moments were just the start of your greatest growth?
Mark J. Friedlander helps youth, student-athletes, and young adults build the mindset to perform under pressure—on the field and in life. As a former athlete and Certified Life Coach, he equips clients with practical tools like visualization, confidence training, and mental focus to navigate setbacks, stress, and self-doubt.
But Mark’s role goes deeper than just coaching. He often serves as the critical bridge between the athlete, the coach, and the parent—translating emotional undercurrents, clarifying expectations, and diffusing tensions that can derail development. In today’s hyper-competitive culture, mental pollution—pressure, perfectionism, fear of failure, and mixed messaging from multiple authority figures—can cloud a young person’s clarity and confidence. Mark’s work clears that fog.
By fostering honest communication, emotional resilience, and mutual understanding, he doesn’t just coach athletes—he coaches the entire support system. Because when the mind is clean and the message is clear, young people thrive.
If you’re ready to reset, refocus, and rise stronger—Mark is here to help you train your mind to match your hustle.
How I Can Help
Let’s get practical. Here’s how mindset training translates into real-world growth:
Clarity – Cut through the noise and reconnect with what truly matters.
Self-belief – Because success begins with the story you tell yourself.
Purposeful action – No more drifting. Move forward with intention and integrity.
Alignment – Define your version of success and happiness — not someone else’s.
Let’s build your mental foundation — together.
