In this episode Hazel and Angus speak with Emma Wood, one of the great minds working in the space of psychology in our community.

Here’s some of the topics we cover:

  • What we can all learn from how competitors manage their mindset and attention under pressure
  • Problems with how we approach psychology in climbing
  • Why don’t instructors and guides get any training around psychological concepts (?!)
  • Trying hard, effort and how this can be trained
  • Performance, mastery and competition and how to balance them all
  • Process versus outcome
  • The importance of self-awareness 
  • Psychological tools to manage stress

Fear in climbing and public speaking Emma is always a joy to speak with and one of our most trusted thought-leaders working in this space.
