How to Defeat Self-Sabotage + Bolster Self-Confidence
This is the episode for everyone who has ever been tormented by self-doubt on a run or felt like an imposter at a race: It’s a thought-provoking round-table discussion with two sport psychologists who get where you’re coming from: Dr. Eryn Ayala and Dr. Tess Kilwein.
With hosts Sarah Bowen Shea and Amanda Loudin, the sport psych docs discuss:
-the importance of fostering self-awareness
-how (+ why!) to get over any aversion to self-compassion
-naming and understanding the comparison game
-the heartbreaking power of perfectionism
-ways to shrug (and laugh) off self-criticism, let it go, and reset
