Jul 22, 202639 min
In this episode, we sit down with sports psychologist, academic, and prolific author Dr. Paul McCarthy. Dr. McCarthy is one of the researchers behind the theory of challenge and threat states, which explores how interpreting pressure as either a challenge or a threat influences the way we think, feel, behave and perform. In part 2, we discuss how Paul interacts with clients (both individuals and teams); we compare the psychology of sport with the psychology of the workplace, and we uncover what tools or interventions would be in Paul's Playbook.
