About this episode
In this episode, Steve Smith and Andy Fitzell had the honor of interviewing Dr. Jim Loehr. Previously, Steve and Andy had dedicated an entire podcast to Dr. Loehr's contributions as a leading sports psychologist. Throughout the 1980s, Steve and his students immersed themselves into the work Dr. Loehr shared with the tennis world. Jim was a pioneer in his field and a vast majority of mental toughness experts continue to model their approach based on Jim's educational efforts. Arthur Ashe once said, "Jim Loehr may be the most important person in all of tennis." The power of this statement is based on how much Jim helped parents, players, and coaches with simple and sound advice that applies to all aspects of life.
