Welcome to the Health Connect Hub podcast.
Kate and Rab here taking you through another interview full of insight and wisdom from health professionals and beyond.
We're interested in finding out about the people behind the profiles, what makes them tick, and how the idea of health factors into what they do.
This week, we are joined by Dr. Peter Olusoga (@po2209), senior lecturer in psychology and host of the Eighty Percent Mental podcast (@eightpercentmental). Pete is active sport psychology consultant, working with athletes and teams in a variety of sports.

Athletes using their voices for change and the long history associated with this
