Conversations that bring structure and insight, with someone who knows the pressures you face.
IDEAS
“I’m stuck”
We all get stuck sometimes. Can’t sleep because something keeps looping around in your head? Stop losing sleep — a coaching conversation can help get you unstuck. These sessions can be about any topic, not just sports-related issues. Often, a single session is enough to unstick you.
“Who am I outside of sport?”
When sport is your whole world, anything that stops you from training or competing can make you feel lost. Injuries, illnesses, pandemics — they can last days, weeks, months, or even years. Knowing yourself, your strengths and values, and your support network can give you a map and GPS. You might not be where you want to be, but at least you’ll know where you are and where to aim at next.
“What career should I prepare for after sport?”
Not sure what you want to do with your life, other than compete? Explore your interests, strengths, and decision-making process to help you find clarity.
Transitions into and out of sport
Any time your main focus changes, your identity shifts with it. Whether you’re becoming a full-time athlete or ending your sports career, the transition can be hard. Coaching before, during, and after the transition can help you stay grounded and make the experience a positive one.
Performance Lifestyle
Explore areas of your life that may be impacting your sport performance, and identify solutions that you are motivated to implement. Why do these things matter? How will you measure the impact? How will you hold yourself accountable? How will you feel when you make the changes?

Testimonials
“I have worked on and off with Andrea for ten years, and while unfortunately we were rarely working in the same city, even from a distance she has been an integral part of my development. Her experience is wide-ranging and her perspective is significant, timely, and informative. She is professional, kind, and utterly competent; I recommend her wholeheartedly.”
Monique Sullivan, Olympic Cyclist
“Andrea and I discussed the goal of our coaching sessions before beginning walking through possible decision processes and seeing which clicked for me. From there we explored that process before moving on. Once we found what I valued in the decision making process it was easy to create a structure around it. What I appreciated most about Andrea was her professionalism and how easy she was to talk to. She always provides thoughtful insights and comments.”
Riley Pickrell, Cyclist and Engineering Student
“The way I describe my experience with Andrea Wooles and Beyond the Podium Coaching is that I didn’t know just how badly I needed the coaching until we finished our last session and felt the magnitude of the weight that was lifted from my shoulders. I have finished these sessions with a plan in place for how I want to achieve everything I want to achieve, a clearer image of where I am headed and what I want to put my effort and time into right now and an understanding of how the different parts of my life – my cycling career, school, work, brand- align and compliment each other. Thank you Andrea for the amazing work and guidance!”
