Meet Kate Allgood — Athlete Mindset Coach & CEO of Quantum Performance
You already are your full potential. It is not about becoming but being that potential.
Kate's Story
Kate’s competitive spirit was born early. At just two years old, her father strapped “cheese cutter” twin-blade skates onto her boots and set her gliding across a frozen Canadian rink. By six, she was competing—and often winning—in all-boys hockey leagues. That drive carried her through a decorated university career, where she earned multiple athletic honors, was recognized as one of Canada’s top female athletes, and was even considered a potential contender for the 2010 Winter Olympics.

After retiring from competitive sport, Kate began exploring new ways to understand and enhance human performance. She trained and worked for several years in Muscle Activation Techniques, a specialization in biomechanics, completed a year of Oriental Medicine studies, and then went on to earn two master’s degrees with honors—one in applied sport psychology and the other in general psychology with a concentration in family psychology—graduating with distinction in both. This deep knowledge of high performance, combined with her own athletic journey, shapes the unique perspective she brings to mental performance coaching today. She is also the author of three books on mental performance, including the Amazon best-seller Get Into the Zone.




Through her company, Quantum Performance Inc., she works with elite athletes and other high performers to build resilience, sharpen focus, and elevate confidence when it matters most. Her clients have included professional athletes in the MLB, NFL, NHL, AHL, Supercross, UFC, PGA, and LPGA, as well as Olympic competitors, elite skateboarders, collegiate and high school athletes, business leaders, Navy SEALs, and Marine fighter pilots.
An athlete at heart, Kate remains active in numerous sports and still plays ice hockey weekly. She resides in San Diego, California.
