Meet Laura Lingner
I’m a former college athlete turned financial strategist and NIL educator. I created Catalyst Performance Methods to help athletes make smarter money decisions, avoid short-term traps, and build something real — on and off the field. I don’t just teach financial literacy — I teach long-term thinking, grounded confidence, and clarity that cuts through the hype.
Catalyst Performance Methods sparks transformation in young athletes' approach to both their sport and their finances.
Welcome to Catalyst Performance Methods, founded in 2022 by a former college athlete who understands the unique challenges athletes face. Our innovative approach to athlete development emphasizes the psychological aspects of sports while integrating essential financial literacy skills to navigate the complexities of NIL endorsements. Today’s athletes need more than just physical and mental performance training; they require the tools to build long-term wealth and make informed financial decisions. We ignite potential in every aspect of an athlete's life, fostering champions who excel on the field and beyond.
