Tage is a Certified Mental Performance Consultant (CMPC®) as certified by the Association for Applied Sport Psychology. With extensive experience in high-performance environments, she empowers athletes, business leaders, and performers to realize their full potential through mental training.

Tage's journey began as a competitive athlete herself. She spent 16 years as a swimmer, competing at the Division I level for The College of William & Mary, where she also earned a B.A. in Psychology. Following her athletic career, Tage transitioned into coaching at Tide Swimming, where she guided athletes from novice to national levels over eight years. During this time, she witnessed firsthand the critical role mental strength plays in achieving peak performance.

Driven by a desire to support people beyond the pool, Tage pursued a M.S. in Kinesiology with a specialization in Exercise and Sport Psychology from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville. Today, she combines her background as an athlete, coach, and mental performance consultant to help individuals in competitive and high-stakes environments harness the power of their minds.

Bianca Martin is a dedicated mindset coach currently working towards her Certified Mental Performance Consultant (CMPC) credential through the Association for Applied Sport Psychology. She holds her Masters in Science in Sport and Performance Psychology from the University of Western States. With a rich background as an elite athlete, running coach of 16 years, and motivational speaker, Bianca brings a bold, dynamic, and empathetic approach to empowering individuals to unlock their full potential.

Bianca’s journey is deeply rooted in her experience as a lifelong athlete and competitor. Growing up as the daughter of a two-time Olympian father and a two-time National Champion mother, she inherited a fierce competitive spirit and a natural coaching mindset. Her athletic career spanned high school, collegiate, and professional running, as well as several years of competitive cycling as an adult. All seasons of her athletic career were shaped by the need for resilience through numerous injuries including five sport-related surgeries. These challenges ignited her passion for mindset development and mental performance. Bianca combines her personal experiences and academic training to deliver innovative and impactful coaching to high performers including 2024 National Champion and Olympian, Allie Wilson (800m).

Believing in the transformative power of mindset, she teaches her clients to embrace obstacles as opportunities for growth in all areas of their lives. Trusting that potential will always be greater than pain, Bianca has made it her life’s work to inspire others to persistently pursue theirs.
