In this episode of the MyoMinds Podcast, I speak with endurance running coach Daniel Robinson. Dan has lived experience with an eating disorder, a Ph.D. in sport psychology, and years of experience as a coach.
Through this conversation, we attempt to tackle to problem of how we can begin to improve coaching to help alleviate and/or prevent eating disorders in sport. We touch on topics like:
- How best to implement experts by experience to help implement change.
- The importance of recognising imposter syndrome as well as your ego.
- Whether there is a truly appropriate way of coaching
- The issues that come with creating a fear of being "cancelled" for coaching in a suboptimal manner
- How can coaches create an atmosphere that is helpful for athletes with eating disorders?
- Is it right to aim to always be happy?
Today's devils advocate question: We know coaches can influence athletes mental health so shouldn’t we be shunning all coaches for so many athletes having mental health issues?
