4th and 1 Mindset: Life’s Playbook for Success is the powerful new book from trailblazing football coach and motivational speaker, Coach Mikki St. Germain. As one of the few women football coaches in a male-dominated sport, Coach Mikki brings a bold and authentic voice to the world of mindset, leadership, and grit, both on and off the field.
Her journey began at age 45, when she decided to defy convention and step onto the gridiron as a coach. With no roadmap and plenty of resistance, she led a team of just 17 players—some of whom had never played before, to a league, division, and a championship. Now, with over 17 years of coaching experience at the youth, high school, and college levels, she shares her real-life stories, wins, losses, and lessons in a raw and relatable way.
This book is more than a playbook, it’s a wake-up call.
Whether you’re an athlete, entrepreneur, parent, student, or just someone facing your own 4th and 1 moment in life, this book gives you the mindset tools to push past fear, rise from setbacks, and play full out.
Coach Mikki’s chapters are structured like a football game, Locker Room, 1st, 2nd , halftime 3rd and 4th quarter to grow and excel. , Each one filled with wisdom, courage, and purpose. From building a team that has your back to protecting your mental “locker room,” every page is filled with truth-telling and transformation.
