Unfiltered Sporting Minds podcast

In the 6th episode of the Unfiltered Sporting Minds podcast we talk with Aaron Shaheed! He is a fellow Doctorate colleague of Rich & has some very interesting niches in the field of sport! 🏓🩺

We always try and remain true to ourself and our values at USM, hence there are a couple of unedited, unplanned segments! We hope you enjoy as much as we didn’t at the time 🤣

Thank you again for tuning in and watching our episode here on YouTube!
We hope you enjoy the full length version of the podcast and if so please leave a like and a comment 💪🏼😎

Hello and welcome to the next instalment of the Unfiltered Sporting Minds podcast!! 🎤🎧

We want to say a little sorry for the audio quality throughout this video. There was a fault with the wire found after filming and it affected Rich’s mic throughout. We have since sorted the issue as you will see in the next episode 😁

We speak with Dr Lauren Garner today about her experiences mainly as a performance psychologist in some of the most high class environments in the world 🌍

We hope you enjoy the full length episode and as ever please like, comment and subscribe if you’re new around here 😎

In this episode we sit down with Ryan McLean of Buxton and talk all things football… in an Unfiltered Sporting Minds way of course!! 😎

He bravely talks about his journey through having an ACL injury - we champion openness here 👑
He gives us an insight into professional footballers for on away days… where do you think is the best?

He also appeases the laughter we have here with some Soccer-AM like questions and a story about an interesting lady at Hereford United FC!

Had so much fun recording this episode! We thank @ryan_mclean7 (instagram) for coming down and featuring on the show 🎥

In the third episode of the Unfiltered Sporting Minds podcast, we are talking bromance vibes

Myself and Jimmy Croxton, an Ultimate Pool professional, talk about how we see the world, family, the state of pool currently, and West Midlands football derbies! ⚽️🎱

Jimmy is also heard speaking very bravely about a topic close to him - Health. We talk about how it is the first wealth and without it, we aren’t able to do anything that we love or be with anyone that we care about 🩺♥️

It’s very unfiltered and very real - something that is normal for us here at USM 💪🏼

Really hope you enjoy this episode as much as we had fun when recording it!

In the second episode of the Unfiltered Sporting Minds podcast, it gets real! 🙌🏼

I talk with my best friend Meg and we dive into her insights and experiences of not only becoming a Mom but then returning to sport as a one too. She unfortunately experienced bad injury which halted her prominent netball career, but, we  discuss how her life has led her here now and she shows a lot of gratitude for her situation. Really nice existential psychology vibes! ✨🔮

Meg speaks about her experiences in and around sport and motherhood - something which a lot of Moms may be able to relate to and find solace in 😇

In the very first episode of The Unfiltered Sporting Minds Podcast the turn tables!

I’m interviewed by my dad and we dive into the moments, memories and mindset shifts that shaped USM’s path into sport and psychology.
We cover why Rich became a sports psychologist, favourite football teams, players and matches, his personal journey through undergrad to his doctorate training, most difficult parts of building a career and what unfiltered sporting minds is all about!

This isn’t just a podcast it’s a real conversation, including vulnerability, identity performance and purpose. 
And it all starts at home.

Listen in for a mix of football, nostalgia, psychology, insight, and unfiltered truth.
