Christen Shefchunas is a Professional Confidence Coach who works with Olympians, World Record holders and NCAA Champions.

She is former All American Swimmer at the University of Tennessee and she coached for 16 years, spending time as an assistant coach at Michigan State and SMU and Head Coach at the University of Miami.

During her time as a coach, Christen watched too many athletes miss out on their potential because of their lack of confidence. Realizing that there was a significant lack of resources for these athletes, Christen left her college coaching career and started Coach Christen, a business focused on helping athletes build their confidence and handle their pressure moments well.

She works one-on-one as a confidence coach with some of the best athletes in the world. In 2024, she had 7 clients qualify for the Paris Olympics bringing home 8 medals, including World Record holder, Gretchen Walsh. She is also a sought after speaker, speaking to teams, athletes and business leaders about building confidence and how to handle the “pressure to perform” moments.
