A one off special collaboration between ‘The Slice of Pie’ Psychology podcast and The Focused Mind. Host of SOP, Pete Jackson, interviews Endurance Mind Coaching founder, Stu Holliday about his unique Endurance mind management programme for runners, cyclists, and triathletes, called ‘The Unbreakable Athlete.’

Pete delves into to ask:
What is the programme?
Who is it for?

What psychological problems does it solve for endurance athletes?

How long does it take?
Why did you develop it?

What are the results like?

And, how does it benefit people who take the course and implement the training?

As a specialist in Sport Psychology for endurance athletes, Stuart has worked in the field for over 12 years and the modular course that athletes complete at the same time they are doing their training for endurance races, he knows what techniques from mainstream and sport psychology best help athletes ‘get out of their own way’ and maximise their potential to deliver their best results under pressure, with true confidence and consistency.

In the episode, Pete uses his psychological training and socratic questioning to find out the methodology behind Stuart’s approach to test it’s validity against research findings and best practice for elite sport with a programme that can benefit all.

If you are chasing targets for marathons, triathlons, sportives, or criteriums, this is an episode not to miss.
