About this listen

“ How do you stay patient when the doctor says you’re doing too much? Mentally I get so down.” —Kathy In season 8 of The Injured Athletes Club podcast, mental skills coach Carrie Jackson answers a question every other week about the mental side of overcoming injuries. This week, she empathizes with Kathy’s conundrum—most injured athletes aren’t happy with the pace of their recovery, because they don’t want to be injured in the first place. But patience is essential, and the way to cultivate it is to recognize it for the strength and power that it holds. Critical steps include letting go of comparisons and judging yourself not on where you hoped you’d be or where others are, but on where your body is today, right now. Breathe, focus on what you can control, and adjust your goals as needed to match your current reality, and soon enough, you’ll find yourself soaring beyond them.
