A podcast with me, Jan Frodeno, where I sit down with people who know what it feels like to hit the edge and sometimes go way past it. Physically, mentally, emotionally. In every episode, we dig into questions that don’t leave you alone: What actually drives us? What holds us back? And how do we grow beyond the person we thought we were? We talk about the search for meaning, identity and the tiny details that turn good into great. But also about the things most of us keep quiet: the setbacks, the doubt, the loneliness, the dark stretches that never make it into the highlight reel. This podcast is for anyone who wants honest conversations, real resilience, and stories that go deeper than results. If you’re curious about what happens in that space between breaking down and breaking through - enjoy the show.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-08T08:19:32.767713+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/frodeno-going-mental-7652943"},"episode":{"title":"From Center Court to Clarity - Andrea Petkovic","slug":"from-center-court-to-clarity-andrea-petkovic","published_at":"2026-02-23T02:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/frodeno-going-mental-7652943/from-center-court-to-clarity-andrea-petkovic","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/frodeno-going-mental-7652943","url":"https://traffic.megaphone.fm/PDS9724746620.mp3?updated=1771598851","audio_url":"https://traffic.megaphone.fm/PDS9724746620.mp3?updated=1771598851","summary":"Andrea Petkovic has lived elite sport from the inside – the hype, the pressure, the injuries, the doubts and the moments that look like success from the outside but feel very different on the inside. In this episode, Andrea and Jan talk openly about what happens when passion turns into expectation, why winning rarely changes what we think it will and how athletes build masks to survive on the biggest stages. Andrea breaks down the different phases of her tennis career, the emotional reality of retirement and why loving the game again sometimes comes right before it all ends. They also dive into identity beyond sport, injuries as psychological breaking points, confidence vs belief, and why having other passions can be both a gift and a risk for elite performers. A deep, honest conversation about ambition, emptiness, resilience and what “going mental” really means. https://www.frodenogoingmental.com Learn more about your ad choices.
