Could the mental strategies of elite athletes revolutionise our performance, whether in the operating room, the boardroom, or the classroom? In this episode, psychologist Josephine Perry joins me to unravel the art of applying sports psychology across high-performance domains.
With a background that zigs and zags through journalism, marketing, and even crisis communications, Josephine embodies the shift from non-athlete to an iron-willed triathlete, proving that the philosophies of sports psychology are not just for those on the track but for anyone chasing their peak potential.
Facing a career crossroads can be daunting, especially for those steeped in the medical field, where the weight of expectation often nudges one down a preordained path. This episode explores the layers of this existential dilemma, offering a compassionate look at the internal struggle medics might face when their career no longer echoes their inner values. Together, we sift through the importance of decision-making guided by personal purpose and the courage it takes to steer away from years of study when it leads you astray from your true calling.
Through real stories, Josephine shares her battles with a lethargic alter ego, dubbed "Lazy Larry," we explore how aligning our life's actions with our core values—like family and bravery—can not only quell the perfectionist's anxiety but also stoke the fires of motivation.
