Episode 6: Kaelene Curry

Welcome back, everyone! On this week's episode, we are joined by another wonderful University of Denver alum: Kaelene Curry! Kaelene is the former director of mental performance for Vanderbilt University, and now spends the majority of her time crushing it as the founder of her own private practice. Kaelene's transparency about her emphasis on a systems approach to this work is well worth listening to, especially for those interested in what sport psych work looks like when working with entire organizations, rather than athletes alone. We also greatly appreciated Kaelene's willingness to share about what her work and approach look like, including recent interventions she's had success with. Let us know what y'all think!
