Mental Fitness and Human Potential with Dr. Brian Hite

Hear Us Out by Eric Sandler and Michelle Schechter

Episode notes

In this episode, we’re joined by Dr. Brian Hite—performance psychologist, educator, and professional stuntman—for a powerful conversation about how the mind operates in high-stakes environments.

From the film set to the therapy room, Dr. Hite brings a rare combination of academic insight and lived experience. We talk about the psychology behind decision-making under pressure, how to train focus and self-awareness, and what it really takes to perform when the stakes are highest—whether you're facing a crowd, a camera, or a critical life moment.

With a unique lens shaped by both science and stunts, Dr. Hite helps us unpack what it means to show up fully, stay grounded in uncertainty, and build the mental tools that help us thrive when it matters most.
