If your negative inner voice is way too chatty, then this episode is for you! We loved this conversation with clinical and sport psychologist, Dr. Mitchell Greene, owner of Greenepsych Clinical & Sport Psychology in which he works with athletes 1:1.
In this episode, Dr. Greene shares how runners can confront mind chatter—that negative inner voice—while racing and training—including how to work on improving, rather than proving, ourselves to others, how to set action goals, in addition to results goals, and how to race with courage, rather than waiting for that confidence to come.
Dr. Greene published Courage over Confidence: Managing Mind Chatter and Winning the Mental Game, a book based on his years of working with high-performing athletes who struggle with managing doubts and negative thinking. His book has spent time as a top 5 “Youth Sport” and “Sport Psychology” Book on Amazon.
Dr. Greene is licensed in the state of PA, and holds PSYpact certification, meaning he can practice telehealth across state lines in participating states.
