Grow the Good

Episode 2 with Brenda Davis RD

“Diet is the king pin, there is no debate about that. Diet is the king pin where chronic diseases are concerned. We see athletes who drop dead of a heart attack because they have severe atherosclerosis because they are eating garbage.”

She is co-author of nine vegan and vegetarian nutrition books including Becoming Vegan as mentioned in this episode. She is the lead dietitian in a diabetes intervention research project in Majuro, Marshall Islands. Brenda is a past chair of the Vegetarian Nutrition Dietetic Practice Group of the American Dietetic Association. In 2007, she was inducted into the Vegetarian Hall of Fame.

“It’s not just about time management, it’s about energy management.”

Today is episode 1 of The Sonya Looney Show! My guest today is dynamic sports psychologist, Dr. Kristin Keim. Dr Keim has her doctorate in clinical psychology and masters in sport’s psychology. Physical effort can only take you so far when it comes to achieving your goals. The power of the mind gives you the extra edge, especially as an endurance athlete. Her mantra is “Happy Racers Go Faster.”

Dr. Keim works with Olympians, pro athletes, and amateurs across multiple sports through her firm, Keim Sports Consulting.   In this episode, we talk about

• when and why to work with a therapist and how it helps people become the best version of themselves
• how to deal with negative self-talk
• healthy, productive ways to reframe negative thoughts
• how meditation works and how to use it
• meditation as mental training
• body image, weight-loss, anxiety around food, and eating disorders
• the concern: “people won’t think I’m an athlete if I don’t look this way…”
• Focus on what you can do with your body, not what it looks like
• Kris’ post on running and imposter syndrome: https://medium.com/@drkeim/my-latest-piece-for-the-size-run-e2742ba4762c
• Commitment to training, time management, and balancing having a job and a family when you are training for an event
• Should you take an off-season?
