Success leaves clues. Every athlete likely hits a point when they believe they have more potential to fulfill in their sport, but they do not know how to unlock this. Repeated physical training and skills practice only takes you so far and can lead to plateauing and stagnation. Every athlete who seeks to reach higher levels of success needs a roadmap to fulfill their goals and maximize their potential. With the right tools to elevate your game across the performance spectrum, you can gain an edge.
Alexa Coyle and Toni Malone, co-founders of The Female Edge, were once in this position. They both hit a point in the elite stages of their careers when they learned that, as the competition gets fiercer, the smaller details are what set you apart. Coyle and Malone wished their younger selves could have had the knowledge and tools they now possess, which is why they created their all-encompassing venture for female athletes, setting out to empower girls and women in sport to find their “edge,” to reach their next level, and achieve success both in and out of their sport.
Alexa explains, “The feeling of breaking barriers through empowering yourself, and experiencing personal growth throughout the process of pursuing your goals are indescribable feelings that I want other female athletes to experience. I want to share what I have learned throughout my athletic journey with other female athletes so they too can feel empowered to pursue greatness through their sport and always believe in themselves no matter what challenges they may face in pursuit of their goals.”
After their collegiate soccer careers at University of Montana and Oregon State University, respectively, Coyle and Malone met for the first time in Scotland — playing professional soccer for the same club. Together they conceived The Female Edge with a mission to guide female athletes in developing an optimal mindset for high performance, provide personalized goal-oriented services, and mentor them to maximize their potential. They want to teach female athletes the power of leveraging the mind, fostering self-confidence, practicing success-oriented skills, and discovering one’s true motivation and purpose in their pursuit of greatness.
Toni says, “Soccer has taught me so much and has made me into who I am today. Developing the right mindset elevated my game. I want to inspire younger generations to be fearless in the pursuit of their dreams and to have confidence in themselves that can accompany them throughout their life.”
