Ep. 79 Waking From The Dream With Dr. Kirsten Van Heerden

What this episode covers

“I was living the dream but I forgot about the alarm clock. I thought that’s such a great and that’s the support as I okay. And it’s just a weird idea of Waking From The Dream came from us like this is so true you living this dream, but the alarm clock is there it’s waiting to go off and then you’re going to wake up into this life and hopefully you don’t wake up into some kind of horrible nightmare. Hopefully waking from the dream that your normal life is even better than your dream life and I say that was really a mission of mine as well is to prepare athletes. So that’s the say life when you’re not competing at that level. It has to be as much of a dream.” – Dr. Kirsten Van Heerden Listen to the episode on iTunes or Spotify Ep. 79 Waking From The Dream With Dr. Kirsten Van Heerden, Sports Performance Psychologist and Former South Africa National Team Swimmer In episode 79, of The 9INE POINT Started With A Dream Podcast , Jacolby Gilliam talks with Dr. Kirsten Van Heerden, Sports Performance Psychologist and former South African National Team Swimmer about her journey.
