Joining us today is Borko Popic to talk about high-performing competitive gaming athletes, how to build healthy, high-performing environments, and his unique approach to overall health and wellness. 

Borko is a Sr. Manager and Performance Coach at Overactive Media, Canada’s largest esports ownership group. Borko and his family, originally from Bosnia, lived for some time in Serbia before immigrating to Canada when he was 9. Practicing sports and collective games quickly broke the language barriers Borko had when he arrived in Canada. Fast forward many years, his passion for sports and high-performing athletes made him a perfect fit to mentor and coach competitive gaming athletes. 

Throughout our conversation, we explored Borko’s background in traditional sports and how that experience served him to help esports athletes perform at their best. We talk about his approach to the mental and physical preparation for esports and gaming, the necessary elements of a healthy, high-performing environment, and the challenges of coaching esports athletes from different backgrounds and latitudes worldwide.
