EP46: Azeem Amir (Footballer for England's Blind Team)

Azeem Amir is a footballer for the England men's blind team. In this episode, he tells Dr Paul Mansell and Dr Joe Dixon about his journey into football, his business ventures that seek to help others learn more about disabilities, and his pride in representing his country at the European and World Championships. Azeem utilises many strategies to facilitate performance under pressure such as choosing a helpful mindset, focusing on the process rather than the outcome, and dealing with mistakes through recognising that there is no pause or rewind button. He explains of the need to switch between 'drone view' and 'Go Pro view' to help him when he is out on the pitch.
