  • Episode 4 - Mastering the Mind: Exploring the Psychology Behind Performance

    In this episode of Mind Set Go, we dive deep into the fascinating world of sports psychology, breaking down complex concepts to help you optimise performance and resilience.

    Join me, PhD student Daniel Osen, as we explore:

    • The HPA axis and its role in stress and recovery.
    • How meta-thoughts and the triangle of thoughts, feelings, and behaviour influence performance.
    • The power of memory and focusing on just two key elements for optimal results.
    • Understanding cumulative stress and why rest and quality sleep are essential for mental clarity.
    • Cognitive re-interpretation: Why missing a penalty doesn’t define you, and how sweating before a keynote might be a sign of meaningful nerves.

      • Whether you’re an athlete, a coach, or someone striving for high performance, this episode provides science-backed insights and practical tips to help you thrive under pressure.

      Tune in and discover how to harness your mind to achieve greatness!

      Coaching experience will lead to greater insight into adjusting to an athlete or a club. I recently finished my two-year degree in an advanced programme in sport psychology and pedagogic studies.


      I will provide you with some key points on meassurment, key point indicators, feedback strategy and being short and crispy with your athlete. Your athlete is not a professor! Make it simple stupid!


      Make sure to leave a star and a review. It really helps me getting my word out there, both in academia and among colleagues, family and friends.

      Episode 2 - Confidence: What is it and Why do we need it?

      By PhD Student Daniel Osen

      In this episode, we dive straight into the topic of confidence, exploring its crucial role in performance psychology. I’ll skip the introductions and get straight to the science, sharing studies on confidence and self-image.


      You’ll hear about what the research shows, and I’ll also draw on real-life experiences, particularly how social media has impacted young people’s sense of self-worth, shaped by perceived parenting styles and societal pressures.

      I'll discuss the struggles faced by adolescents and how these influence their confidence, providing valuable insights that you can apply to improve your own performance, both in sports and in life.
