More than just noise, trash talk is a language of competition—one that reveals how people respond to stress, adversity, and high-stakes situations. Join author and mental-toughness educator Rafi Kohan for a fascinating exploration of what competitive environments can teach us about leadership and peak performance.

Through research, storytelling, and interactive discussion, Rafi will examine how pressure impacts decision-making, communication, emotional regulation, and leadership effectiveness. By unpacking the psychology behind trash talk, participants will gain valuable insights into their own responses to stress and discover practical strategies for performing at their best when it matters most.
