If you've ever felt like your mood has a mind of its own during PMS, pregnancy, or perimenopause, you already know that hormones like estrogen and progesterone don't just affect your body — they shape your entire sense of well-being. And if you've lived with trauma or neurodivergence, like ADHD, you also know how reactive the nervous system can be. What happens when all of that collides during midlife and menopause…and hormone therapy gets added to the mix? For some women, the results are anything but balanced. This week's guest, trauma therapist Paula Rastrick, knows that firsthand. She opens up about her harrowing experience with high-dose hormone therapy — an intervention that nearly unraveled her — and shares what she's uncovered about the deep, complex relationship between hormones, nervous system sensitivity, trauma, and stress. Paula Rastrick is a trauma therapist, author and creator of The Brain-Body Method, an integrated trauma-informed and neurodiverse approach to hormonal sensitivity. She is a BSc (Hons) in Sport & Exercise Psychology; has postgraduate certification in Psychological Trauma, Eye Movement Desensitisation & Reprocessing (EDMR) Trauma Therapy, is a Safe and Sound Protocol Practitioner and has training in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), pain science, and integrated kinetic neurology. She's also done trauma-informed continuing professional development work in yoga therapy, applied polyvagal theory in yoga, vagus nerve integration, HRV training, performance psychology, and somatic psychology.

Her expertise includes high-performance psychology consulting, academic research, writing, and flow experience assessment. With a PhD in Sport and Exercise Psychology, Sue has extensive experience in the sports, performance, and health industries.

Dr. Jackson explained that flow is characterized by high task involvement, with no mental energy left for self-consciousness or other distractions. She also mentioned that flow is not limited to sports but can be experienced in various settings such as music, acting, and therapy. The discussion also touched on the connection between flow and passion, agreeing that when one is utterly passionate about something, every part of it is in sync. Dr. Jackson discussed the challenges that prevent individuals from achieving flow, a state of optimal engagement and performance. He identified distractions, self-consciousness, lack of skills, and non-optimal arousal levels as key obstacles. Dr. Jackson emphasized the importance of mindfulness and meditation in overcoming these challenges, as they help individuals focus on the present and develop the skills necessary for flow. He also highlighted the role of motivation and optimal environmental conditions in facilitating flow. She discussed the importance of immediate and clear feedback in maintaining focus and flow during public speaking or performance. Emphasized that negative feedback should not be interpreted as a personal failure, but rather as a personal issue of the audience. Dr. Foojan also highlighted the significance of focusing on the task at hand and not getting distracted by irrelevant thoughts or emotions. She suggested that psychological skills can help maintain focus and refocus when necessary. Lastly, she addressed the issue of some individuals feeling they lack control over their performance, suggesting that understanding the steps and process can help them achieve their goals. Dr. Jackson discussed the concept of flow, which she defined as a state of complete engagement and connection with a task or activity. She emphasized that flow is not an accident but a state that can be cultivated through key factors such as a balance between challenge and skill, clear goals, and feedback. Dr. also highlighted the importance of focus and being able to completely immerse oneself in the task at hand. She described her experience of achieving flow as a complete connection and unity with the task or person involved. Dr discussed the importance of being present at the moment and focusing on the tasks at hand rather than being distracted by external inputs. They emphasized the benefits of mindfulness and meditation in developing these skills. Dr also acknowledged that individuals with attention deficit disorders can experience hyper focus, which can be a strength to be leveraged. They advised these individuals to play to their strengths and develop skills to know when hyper-focus isn't appropriate. Dr. Sue Jackson discussed the importance of flow in enhancing the quality of subjective experience and promoting personal growth. She emphasized that flow allows individuals to engage fully in activities, leading to a more enjoyable and fulfilling experience. Dr. Jackson also highlighted the benefits of flow in developing skills and becoming the best version of oneself. She encouraged the practice of flow in various aspects of life, such as work, nature walks, and even sexual experiences.

I'm delighted to speak with Ben Ashdown this week. Ben is joined by return guest, Dr Mustafa Sarkar. Ben is a senior lecturer in Sport and Exercise Psychology at Nottingham Trent University. He is part of the Sport Performance Research Group in the Sport, Health and Performance Enhancement (SHAPE) Research Centre and is a PhD researcher focusing on resilience in youth football. Ben's research interests are observational methods and assessment in sport psychology, resilience behaviours in youth football and resilience development practices. Before moving into lecturing, Ben was a research associate at The University of Nottingham on the Steps to Active Kids (STAK) project that sought to evaluate the impact of a school-based physical activity programme on outcomes including self-efficacy and obesity risk factors. Ben is a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy and has a Postgraduate diploma in teaching in the lifelong learning sector. After graduating from York St John University on a BA (Honours) degree in Sport Studies and Psychology, Ben completed an MSc in Sport Psychology at the same institution. Mustafa is Associate Professor of Sport and Performance Psychology at Nottingham Trent University. His main area of research is on individual, team and organisational resilience in elite sport. Mustafa has a background in teaching and research with most of his research focusing on the psychology of sporting and performance excellence, specifically looking at resilience in high achievers in sport and business. Mustafa also works with coaches and organisations helping them to develop resilience in athletes and teams. We talk about a brilliant paper led by Ben and co-authored by Mustafa and Dr Chris Saward and Dr Julie Johnston entitled “Exploring the behavioral indicators of resilience in professional academy youth soccer”. The study offers insight into the observable behaviours characterising resilience in youth soccer. Participants identified 36 resilience behaviours, highlighting the multifaceted nature of the concept in this specific context. The results provide a platform to support practitioners in observing resilience behaviours and structuring practices for resilience assessment and development. The findings of this study can support youth soccer players in reflecting on their behavioural responses to in-game stressors, and thus better understand how and when they demonstrate resilience.
While physical training is essential in sports, the mental and emotional well-being of athletes is just as important. Tonight, on psychological matters, We'll be exploring how a coach's words and actions can deeply affect an athlete's performance, self-esteem, and overall mental health. It's been a prominent issue highlighted in the Olympics recently and tonight we'll have Dr Mike McGreary, Senior Lecturer in Sport and Exercise Psychology in Keele University in the UK for more on this topic.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode I'm delighted to speak with Dr Paul Mansell and Dr Katie Sparks. Paul is a lecturer in Sport and Exercise Psychology at Staffordshire University. Paul completed his PhD in 2023 at the University of Birmingham which investigated the role of trait beliefs in determining stress appraisals, performance and well-being. Paul continues to research in this area, with a specific focus on stress mindset and irrational beliefs. Specifically, Paul has constructed an intervention informed by the REBT framework to enhance well-being and performance under pressure. Katie is a Lecturer in Sport and Exercise Psychology at Staffordshire University and is currently undertaking her PhD at University of Birmingham. Katie is also a mindfulness practitioner. She previously worked with British Rowing as a Performance Lifestyle Advisor and ran psychology educational workshops within their talent development pathway. Paul and Katie discuss the findings of a study that investigated whether a multimodal cognitive-behavioural intervention could enhance young athletes' psychological well-being and performance. The intervention employed a combination of education and reappraisal delivered in 6 × 1-hour group workshops. Content included stress mindset, irrational beliefs, self-compassion, and imagery. They found that teaching athletes simple cognitive behavioural techniques can change their ‘stress mindset' and, in turn, enhance their wellbeing and performance.
Hello Pole dancer and welcome to a new episode of The Evidence Based Pole Podcast, brought to you by Slink Through Strength with Rosy Boa. Today we are discussing how to make exercise enjoyable and the motivations to move. Lots of disciplines have looked at this; Panteleimon Ekkekakis at Iowa State is one of the main researchers working on this topic & developed the Affective-Reflective Theory of Exercise w/ Ralf Brand) One of the ways to keep the motivation up are to keep the intensity a bit lower. Medium intensity is more pleasurable than high intensity exercise, especially for folks who aren't already exercising often. If you are going for more intensity, don't go too long without a break OR decrease intensity over time. Research shows for men who weren't already very active, pleasure in exercise dropped off quickly the longer they did a high-intensity exercise and the ended up disliking it. Decreasing (rather than increasing) load over the period of exercise was waaaay more pleasure for participants--even though the total resistance was the same (put your hard tricks at the front!) Another form of motivation to exercise is through developing Self-efficacy. This means believing that you can achieve your goals/desires is especially important at lower intensities. For me as a teacher: making sure that there are interesting and fun options for different capacities and abilities. A huge factor in motivation is to exercise to music you enjoy!
