Champions vs. Almost Champions with Kelly Inouye-Perez - UCLA Softball, Head Coach

UCLA softball coach Kelly Inouye-Perez has won 8 national championships and been to 28 World Series. She knows, better than anyone, what separates champions from “almost champions.” But this conversation isn’t really about softball; it’s about building sustainable excellence in any high-stakes environment. “Coach I” shares that championship cultures aren’t built on talent alone. They’re built on individual decisions to pursue excellence, a collective commitment to making each other better, and daily preparation that builds poise under pressure.

In this conversation with ReliaQuest mental performance coach Derin McMains, you’ll also hear Coach I talk about:

• John Wooden's influence on her coaching
• Transferring ownership through reflection
• Performing in the biggest moments
