My guest today is Billy Ryan. Billy is a performance psychology consultant located in Savannah, GA who works with the military, sports teams, and individuals at the highschool/club, NCAA, NAIA, and the professional level. He specializes in applying ACT and behavior science to increase meaning and performance in a given context.

Some of the topics we explore in this episode include:
- How Billy first got into using ACT for sport performance
- The importance of language and messaging in sports
- The use of ACT Matrix in Billy’s work with athletes
- The role of attentional flexibility and holding outcomes lightly
- The current influence of mental and emotional well-being in sports
- And Billy’s hopes for the future of ACT in the world of sport
