Sport Psych Qld

Join us on our new page at Performance Potential to continue this conversation! ✨ There is much talk about AFL player Bailey Smith and his recent journey with his mental health.
But there is something no-one is talking about 👇

This young man — this young athlete — endured a significant injury that took him away from:
⚡️ his job
⚡️ his routine
⚡️ his teammates
⚡️ his passion
⚡️ his happy place.

👉 For high-performance athletes, injuries lasting 8+ weeks don’t just affect the body. They can have a huge impact on confidence, mood and self-belief.

💡 Don’t wait for things to spiral. Get advice early!
Because recovery isn’t just physical — it’s mental too.
👉 If you (or your athlete) are going through this right now, drop us a message — I’m sure we can help.

At the AFL Awards, Bailey Smith spoke candidly about one of the hardest chapters of his life, revealing he spent a month in a Melbourne psych ward before his move to Geelong, bravely sharing his mental health battle for the first time.

Injury recovery takes time and having a mental plan is equally as important as the physical plan. Thanks Cate!

What a beautiful example of emotional regulation in action!!! 👇🏼

Where the heightened emotion and passion of peak performance is regulated through a choice to redirect attention to the task at hand.

This is a valuable skill in sport, business and home life. Right?!?

In this case, women beach volleyball players in the Paris Olympic Gold Medal Match pivoted and connected with a broader perspective (and there is no better way than Imagine 🎶 by John Lennon).

What do you think?
