Episode 72 is an interview with Julie Emmerman. Dr. Julie Emmerman is a sport psychologist who currently works with numerous individuals on men and women’s world tour pro cycling teams, is a contract employee with USA Cycling’s High-Performance division, and provides consultation with team directors. Julie also worked with Garmin-Slipstream (EF Education First is the current incarnation) Pro Tour team from 2008-2010, one of the team’s most successful periods to date. In addition to cycling, her clientele includes NHL, track and field Olympians, professional triathlon, golf, and MMA. She is passionate about being able to play a role in the professional and personal lives of so many. I chat with Julie about how to deal with the prolonged lockdown in Melbourne, but also how to deal with the anxiety around Covid in general. We also talk about how to deal with racing anxiety. Julie is also a highly accomplished athlete herself. In 2019 she took 8th in the US Pro Women’s Time Trial. In 2018, she won Silver at the Master Track National Championships. She is also the current American national record holder for the Masters Time Trial.
