Holy Blais joins the podcast. Professionally she’s a Behavior Analyst and athletically she’s primarily a runner although she does remind me from time to time how much she loves riding her gravel bike. This professional and personal combination of experiences gives her an incredibly unique perspective on the mental side of endurance sports. We dive into the concept of psychological flexibility which she believes (and I agree) are incredibly important to the endurance athletes positive experiences and healthy relationship with their sport. We also chat about the Zipper Effect. A concept I was unaware of before the show but actually unknowingly have been using in my coaching practice.
