Harness pressure, reframe fear and perform at your best when it matters most.

Instead of merely advising others how to excel under pressure, leading sports psychologist Ant Williams decided to practice what he preached, and took up sports that scared him. First free-diving and then ice-diving, Ant set world-records and proved the mental techniques needed to build resilience, perform under pressure, and thrive in life’s toughest moments.

In Let it be Tough Ant shows that mental toughness isn’t born — it’s trained. Through gripping personal stories, science-backed strategies, and practical techniques, Ant shows you how to recognise the hard moment you're in, pause with purpose, and move forward with confidence and clarity – even when the pressure is intense.

Learn how to:
 



stay calm and clear-headed under pressure
build mental resilience and thrive in tough situations
develop confidence in the face of uncertainty
develop a performance mindset in everyday life
take bold, decisive action when it matters most.


If you're ready to stop avoiding discomfort and start using it to build strength, Let it be Tough is your guide to mastering your mindset and thriving under pressure.

Ant Williams is a world-record-holding freediver, performance psychologist, and mental strength coach who has spent two decades exploring what it means to perform under pressure. Before diving under Arctic ice on a single breath, Ant coached elite athletes, including MotoGP riders, big-wave surfers, and extreme sports competitors, helping them master fear, focus and high-stakes performance. But despite his success in the field, he felt something was missing. To truly understand what it means to operate at the edge, Ant turned to freediving, not because he was born to it, but because it scared him. He trained himself to a world-class level and went on to set multiple world records, including the deepest freedive under ice (70.3m) and the longest distance swum under ice (182m), performed in near-total darkness in sub-zero water. Today, Ant combines insights from sport psychology and extreme adventure to teach others how to harness pressure, reframe fear, and perform at their best when it matters most. His immersive dive has been featured in Apple’s Adventure series on Apple Vision Pro, offering a groundbreaking look at human potential in the world’s most unforgiving environments.
