What separates Olympic athletes and other high performers from others with similar talent who don't make it to the top?
My guest, Dr Kirsten Peterson is a sports psychologist who has worked with Olympic athletes for decades.
We talk about high performance, in sports and in life, and what approaches and strategies lead to maximal success.
We discuss:
- winning and losing
- focusing on the basics
- the central role of mindfulness
- the usefulness -- and limits -- of grit
- dealing with self-doubt and fear of failure
- engaging with process rather than outcome
- seeing the bigger picture
- how meditation can improve performance
- team dynamics -- the balance of accountability and psychological safety
Enjoy!
