Exciting times at Rocket Pod! We're thrilled to bring you our first-ever double guest episode featuring the incredible Dave Gallagher and Henk Kroon. Dave, AKA the CognitivExplorer, isn't your ordinary Extreme Sports Psychologist. He's a blend of an Adventurer, a compelling Motivational Speaker, Award-winning Photographer, and Author (keep your eyes out for his upcoming book!) Meanwhile, Henk is not only passionate about mountaineering; he's a true lover of extreme sports and how it helps to take on mental-health. He also happens to be James's second cousin once removed! This episode turned out to be a fascinating exploration for us. We dived into various challenging scenarios Henk has been through, and Dave, with his unique expertise, unpacked the cognitive processes behind them. We're buzzing with excitement about this one and truly hope it resonates with you as much as it did with us. Dive in for a blend of science, adventure, and personal growth, all wrapped up in one exhilarating episode! 👇🏼 Opportunities to connect with Dave & Henk can be found below - - - 👍 Like this video if you enjoyed it, it helps us reach more people! 💬 Comment what topics you want us to explore 😮 📲 Subscribe so you never miss an episode! - - - Connect with DaveDave Gallagher, CPsychol, specialises in researching how the brain performs in extreme environments and adventure pursuits. He also applies this understanding to help people become more adventurous in thought and behaviour as an antidote to stress in everyday life; using adventure and challenge to enhance mental wellbeing and build resilience. He works with pioneering BASE jumpers, charities that take people into the wild to restore purpose and overcome anxiety, and corporate organisations to build more effective teams. "I'm keen to connect with organisations that are interested in performance and mental wellbeing and who might want to collaborate or become sponsors for the research. That includes veterans' groups (military, emergency services, search and rescue) and corporate organisations interested in how adventure psychology and neuroscience can optimise performance and mental fitness in their workforce." - Dave https://www.cognitvexplorer.co.uk/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/dave-gallagher/ https://www.instagram.com/davegallagheradventures/ Connect with Henk https://www.instagram.com/henknation/?hl=en https://www.linkedin.com/in/hendrik-kroon-0173a7a1/?originalSubdomain=uk - - - About Rocket Pod Rocket Pod: How Visionaries Forge Their Dreams into Reality.
