About this listen
In this episode of the Get Mental podcast, host Dave Matthews interviews Joseph Kennedy, a doctoral candidate in counseling psychology and expert in sports psychology. They discuss the evolving landscape of sports psychology, focusing on the growing acceptance of mental health support among athletes, the integration of mindfulness practices, and the importance of self-awareness in performance. Kennedy shares insights on the ATC model for understanding thoughts and emotions, the significance of consistency in athletic performance, and the concept of 'shrinking the game' to simplify focus and enhance performance.
The conversation emphasizes the need for athletes to balance self-judgment with non-judgmental awareness to improve their mental game and overall performance. In this conversation, Joe Kennedy and Dave Matthews explore the complexities of being a college athlete, focusing on the mental health challenges they face during their transition from high school to college sports.
