#418: Guest Interview: The Mindset of Being A Pilot with Tammy Barlette and Bryan Price

Season #22

It’s double the guests, double the good stuff on today’s very special episode of The Mindset Coach Academy Podcast!

Today, I am thrilled to be joined by two Mindset Coach Academy graduates, Bryan Price and Tammy Barlette, for this month’s expert interview! Both of these incredible human beings are badasses in their own right with a common history in military service. Bryan served as a Lieutenant Colonel and an Attack Helicopter Pilot while Tammy served as a Lieutenant Colonel and Fighter Pilot. 

Drawing from their individual experiences in the military, we dive into topics like pre-flight jitters, nerves, perfectionism, failure, and handling pressure. AND the very important skill of mistake recovery because, as Tammy puts it, you can't pull over in a cloud! They share a fascinating, behind-the-scenes look at the mental side of high-risk roles in the military with sharp, clear takeaways that will stick with you. 

As natural leaders, self-made experts, and living examples of what they teach, both Bryan and Tammy are some of the most impressive humans I’ve ever met. Their mindset of excellence in all they do has given them wisdom that spans all industries.

I am so proud to say that Bryan and Tammy have gone through our Mindset Coach Academy Certification and have put our teachings into practice to help them build their coaching businesses. I love them as mindset coaches, humans, and students, and I’m so proud to have been a part of their success. They’ve been such a pleasure to have in our community and have taught me so much over the years.
