About us


My name is Zacharias Planting, founder of Wilhelm Stall. I hold a Master’s degree in Sport Psychology from the University of Jyväskylä and specialize in helping athletes optimize their mental performance. I grew up competing in athletics, but my own athletic career ended earlier than I intended. Looking back, the reason was clear: a lack of tactical support in handling the psychological pressure of the sport. I experienced firsthand what happens when an athlete lacks the right tools to navigate mental friction. My expertise lies in high-performance psychology and the science of automaticity. I build the tactical frameworks that allow athletes to conquer mental friction and consistently access their flow state. That mission is the foundation of Wilhelm Stall, and it is exactly why I do what I do today.


My Approach:

Authenticity – A commitment to genuinely understanding the athlete and the root of their challenges, built on a foundation of absolute trust and empathy.
Practicality – No abstract theories or generic advice. We focus strictly on concrete, tactical tools that deliver measurable results under pressure.

Adaptability – Every athlete's mind operates differently. The strategy we build is engineered specifically for your unique goals and environment.
Sustainability – Quick fixes work; automaticity lasts. We focus on building a psychological foundation that sustains you for the rest of your career.


These are just some of my core principles. Every journey is unique, and our work together will be shaped by your needs, challenges, and goals.

If you are ready to elevate your mental game, let’s talk strategy. Your first consultation is free.

About us


My name is Zacharias Planting, founder of Wilhelm Stall. Right now, it’s just me running things, but that may change. I have a Master’s in Sport Psychology from the University of Jyväskylä and work as a mental coach, helping athletes and non-athletes optimize their mental performance.


Sports have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up in athletics, some even said I had a bit of talent, but I quit earlier than I wanted to. Looking back, I realize that the lack of support and proper guidance in navigating the mental challenges athletes face played a significant role, something I now see as essential for athletes of all ages. That’s one of the key reasons I do what I do today.


My Approach


Adaptability – Every athlete is different, so the approach should be too.
Practicality – Theory is great, but what matters is what actually works.
Sustainability – Quick fixes help, but real progress comes from lasting mental strength.


These are just some of my core principles. Every journey is unique, and our work together will be shaped by your needs, challenges, and goals.

Why work with me?


Working on your mental game alone is always an option. In fact, it’s necessary, you know yourself better than anyone. But let’s be honest: figuring out exactly what works, how to navigate mental friction, and how to stay consistent under pressure is incredibly difficult to do in isolation. That’s where I come in. Just like a physical coach builds your athletic strength, I provide the techniques and strategies to build your mental framework. I don't just offer advice; I give you the concrete tools that make a real difference, both right now and in the long run.

What I Bring to the Table:

New Perspectives – You cannot fix a mental blind spot you cannot see. I help you map the exact sources of your mental barriers.
Tactical Sparring – I listen, guide, and actively challenge your limitations and push you past your psychological barriers.
Practical Tools & Strategies – You get actionable methods to reach your desired results.

Customized Framework – We build a personalized mental strategy to unlock automatic, peak performance.
A True Ally – I am your dedicated sparring partner, someone who is fully in your corner.

Working on your mental game alone is always an option, even necessary. You know yourself better than anyone. But let’s be honest, it’s tough to figure out what actually works, what lessons to take, and how to stay consistent. Growth takes time, and challenges are part of the process.

That’s where a mental coach comes in. Just like a trainer helps you build physical strength, I help you develop the mental skills that make a real difference, both now and in the long run.

What I Bring to the Table:


New Perspectives – I help you see things in a way you might not on your own.
Guidance & Challenge – I listen, guide, and push you past mental barriers.
Practical Tools & Strategies – You get actionable methods to reach your potential faster.
A True Ally – I will be your sparring partner, and someone who’s fully in your corner.
