116: Jamie Mittelman on Working With Elite Women Athletes

In this episode, I sit down with Jamie Mittelman, founder of Flame Bearers, the world’s first storytelling platform for elite women athletes. Jamie shares how her personal yoga journey helped her manage OCD and anxiety, deepening her understanding of the mind-body connection. She also discusses how Flame Bearers amplifies the voices of over 275 Olympians and Paralympians from 55 countries, with a focus on diverse representation through video, podcasts, and events.

Listeners will gain insights into:

Jamie’s transformative yoga journey, from high school to teaching in Southeast Asia. The powerful mental health practices used by athletes, including daily reflection, visualization, and positive self-talk. How yoga skills translate beyond the mat, enhancing public speaking, leadership, and professional performance. The evolution of women’s sports, from gender parity at the Olympics to breaking sponsorship records in soccer and basketball.

Jamie and Flame Bearers are reshaping the narrative of elite female athletes and the role yoga plays in fostering mental and physical resilience. For more on Jamie’s work, lookup the Flame Bearers podcast, visit flamebearers.com or contact her at jamie@flamebearers.com
