Episode 352: Navigating fear, anxiety and self-doubt for high performance in sport and beyond


Listen Later

IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon hosts the Purple Patch Podcast, focusing on integrating sport into busy lives and overcoming performance anxiety. He introduces a free webinar on preparing for triathlons with limited time, emphasizing the importance of mindset. Dixon shares a case study of an athlete named Kate, who experienced self-doubt and underperformance due to outcome anxiety. He outlines five strategies to manage fear and self-doubt: reframing fear as a challenge, focusing on the process rather than outcomes, using stress as fuel, building exposure tolerance, and separating thoughts from identity. Dixon encourages athletes to embrace discomfort and train their minds for resilience.
