This week Kathryn and Kristi welcome back 2022 Lifetime Grand Prix Champion Haley Smith. Haley recently completed her Masters of Science in Sport Psychology, and in this episode she takes a deep dive into how we can all work towards keeping our mindset positive during races and training rides. As both an academic and an accomplished athlete Haley knows the importance of keeping her mental game strong. She talks through her own mindfulness and mindset habits and tricks for preparing for races and hard training sessions. Haley also explains why a mindfulness practice can be a key tool for athletes, and how we can all integrate that practice into our daily routines.
