Esport coaches, I need your support! I'd love to chat about your experiences with stress in your coaching role (60-90 min). Your insights are invaluable to inform practical implications and future research. Please let me know if you're interested and I'll provide more details!🎙️

Congrats to Anjali Agrawal for publishing her case study on multicultural reflections working in esports in Case Studies in Sport and Exercise Psychology!! It was lovely to work alongside Anji and Dr. Sahen Gupta on this case. A great read for sport psychs to reflect on their practice. DM if you'd like a copy! 😁

Here’s a sneak peak of a new project Dr Laura Swettenham and I have been working on 😬🎙️ In an area that is so focused on performance, when is it good to feel comfortable in sport, and when is it best to push yourself? #psychology #sportpsychology #podcast
