Unlock peak performance & thrive.
Hi, I’m Cara.
I’m a World Champion athlete turned high-performance coach and co-driver of change. Why a co-driver? Because in coaching, the chief visionary is YOU—the person deeply craving peak performance in their sport or career. Welcome! I’m happy you’re here because I am skilled-up and ready to serve you.
How it all started…
In 2015, I started a blog called “Be Brave,”
with an underlying desire to serve the rowing community by sharing my experiences through writing. I was training on the historic Boathouse Row in Philadelphia and aspiring to make my first US National Team.
My first blog post, “Secret Dreams, Random Facts,” gives insight into the mindset of a young athlete who struggled with confidence yet deeply desired to race for Team USA.
Today, Be Brave has evolved into a high-performance coaching platform serving athletes, coaches and industry leaders. It’s mission: To facilitate peak performance and well-being in athletes, coaches and industry leaders through mindset training and personal development in the context of sport and career.

“It’s been an incredible honor to walk alongside @carastawicki for the past five years. Sustained world class performance is its own kind of hard. Be Brave is the embodiment of how she lives + competes. Love that she’s stepping into the coaching space to pay forward her many gifts + serve others. It’s hope-giving and a gift to sport.”
