This Olympic Cyclist is Slowing Down, One Coffee at a Time
Episode 79 of The Mental Game features two-time Olympic track sprint cyclist, Sam Dakin of New Zealand.
Not only is Dakin one of New Zealand’s top athletes, but he’s also among the nation’s foremost mental health advocates. As he deals with obsessive-compulsive disorder, Dakin has taken an active role in helping both himself — through therapy and active coping strategies — and others, by spearheading advocacy and communication efforts.
Dakin also heads up Slow Coffee Roasters, which “uses coffee as a way to slow down.” Among Dakin’s top principles is forcing himself to move slowly and “marinate” in life.
On The Mental Game, Dakin…
- Dives into why his coffee company helps his (and can help your) mental health.
- Tells the inspiring story of coming to terms with his mind.
- Explains why he sometimes stares at a wall for 45 minutes to start his day.
- And much, much more…
