In episode 20, we chat with Kate Goodger about the approaches to unlock our best performance ever. 

Formerly a PE teacher, Kate is one of the most experienced performance psychologists in Olympic sport in the UK having worked with Team GB athletes and medallists at seven Olympic Games.  She has also built a reputation as a high-performance coach and facilitator with leaders and executives in European and global businesses. Clients have included LEGO, Morgan Stanley, Pfizer, ASDA, and Laing O’Rourke.

We discuss:

• Taking time to know 1) who you are, 2) what really matters and 3) where you belong
• How the strongest athletes have the best relationship with failure
• The Psychology & Biology of Performance
• The biggest barriers that prevent people from improving their own performance
• How to be proactive and nurture our sense of belonging
• Plus, Kate puts Cathal on the spot for his views on some topics

This is a fantastic discussion from a thoughtful, present, and very articulate Kate, we hope it helps with improving your performance.

And in let's take this offline, Annette Sloan and I break down the three biggest takeaways, plus we answer a question from our listener Natasha, on the impact an error she made at work is having on her.
