TBP 284 :: Overcoming Mindset Hurdles in Projecting with Sport Psychologist Madeleine Crane
Madeleine Crane is a Sport Psychologist from Austria who runs www.climbingpsychology.com. She sees clients one-on-one to help them with the psychological parts of climbing and she created an online platform at www.unblocd.com where she creates self-paced courses for climbers to help them build mental skills. She was on the show in a different episode talking about overcoming fear of falling back in 2020.
I asked her to be on the show because I think she’s an astute, skilled psychologist who’s also a very experienced climber. She is an accomplished boulderer and she used to compete on the youth and World Cup circuits. In this episode we discussed the mental and emotional struggles some people encounter while projecting climbs. Hopefully this discussion will help you bring awareness to your own mental experience and give you some tools to deal with fear of failure, negative comparison to others, and knowing when to call it quits on a project.
Madeleine is offering a 30% discount on her mental skills training programs at unblocd.com using the code “trainingbeta” at checkout. You can also find her on Instagram @climbingpsychology and @unblocd.
