#130 - High-Performance Coaching Practice - Ben Mayfield-Smith
About this episode
This week, I met with Benjamin Mayfield-Smith, Founder of Matter Athletica, a coaching ecosystem built for those who refuse to settle for average — in body, business, or life. Ben is a high-performance coach, bodybuilding specialist, and the mind behind The Matter Mentality — a philosophy rooted in radical ownership, intentional suffering, and the pursuit of untapped human potential. From competitive physique athletes to everyday high performers, his work blends elite training systems with a ruthless commitment to self-mastery.
We discussed:
Catching up with Ben
Transitioning to performance coaching
What is performance?
Getting buy-in to NOT fully invest into sport
Learning life skills through physical transformation
How do we systematize the transfer of skill for sport to life?
Return on investment within sales at the corporate level
Walking the walk as a coach
Showing up for people
Shifting identity instead of setting long term goals
