LJNRadio: You Do What? - I'm a Sport Psychologist

Sports are a huge part of American life, from Little League, high school and amateur sports, to college and the pros. While we may marvel at their physical abilities, the mental side plays a vital role in prolonged success. Tim Muma speaks with Dr. Peder Piering, a sport pyschologist with Ignite Your Life, who discusses the unique aspects of psychology in sports. Dr. Piering explains how this profession is different than traditional pyschology, what is essential for success, and some stories to illustrate the role of sport psychologists. You Do What? is a fun show about odd jobs and how people got into them. We bring in pet detectives, astronomers, and more and discover the when, where, and why about their professions.
