Sports psychologist and British record breaker, Helen Davis joins us to chat about managing nerves and performance anxiety in competitive swimming. We discuss visualization techniques, the difference between threat and challenge mindsets, and how to set realistic performance goals. 

The conversation with host, Helen Gorman covers strategies for staying grounded after success as well as bouncing back from poor performances. 

With the World Aquatics Masters Championships looming, we get excited for upcoming races and consider the privilege of competing at a high level. The concepts in this podcast can be applied to any event, so enjoy this conversation between two breaststroke record holders as they prepare (firstly for lunch, and then) to compete in Singapore.
