The Mind Matters: S2E2 - Sinead Halpin: Preparation for High Performance

Sports Psychologist Dr. Jenny Susser and Chris Stafford are joined this week by International event rider Sinead Halpin.  They discuss the highs and lows of competing at the highest level of equestrian sport and the personal journey that Sinead has taken from being a team member to then taking a break to get married and start a family.  She is now working hard to rebuild her team of horses and preparing for the major events in the hope of returning to the team.  We hear about what that takes both physically and psychologically now that she’s a mother with a business to run.
