4. Ted Lasso, Sports Psychology, and Are "the Yips" Real?
Description
Season 2 introduces us to Dr. Sharon, a sports psychologist who is brought in to help Danny overcome the Yips. But, what exactly are the Yips? Is this a real phenomenon? If so, what causes it and how is it treated? We will also discuss how coaching style might affect a player’s “mental game,” and our two guests will weigh in on whether Ted Lasso would make a good coach in real life.
