This episode focuses on ADHD in sport, and features an interview with Dr. Josephine Perry. Dr. Josephine Perry is a Chartered Sport Psychologist who works with record breaking athletes, performers on the stage and screen and senior leaders in business, medicine and law. She helps her clients understand themselves, their purpose and their values and teaches them the skills to overcome their mental barriers so they feel comfortable and confident when they perform. Josephine has a PhD from the London School of Economics in political communications and used these skills working in large corporations, charities and government as a corporate communications director for 15 years. She retrained in Sport Psychology having caught the bug for competing in Ironman races and realizing she might perform better if she used her brain as well as her body. She now splits her time between working with high performers, lecturing at the Open University and writing. She has published 5 books and regularly comments on performance psychology in the media including BBC Breakfast, ITN News, BBC Ten O’Clock News and Women’s Hour.
