#154 - Samantha McLeod, Sport Psychologist at Richmond Tigers Football Club

Dr Mcleod and I discuss her transition into the field of psychology. She details how her work satisfies her desire and passion to educate, heal, change, and optimise the potential of individuals, groups and organisations. For her, stress is trying to do too much at once. She needs a lot to fulfill and satisfy her passion mentioned above, and as she is involved in so many organisations, she certainly has a lot going on. Samantha shares how she relates to some clients, after being a female athlete and working full time during her athletic career. Her role as a point guard gave others the opportunity to score instead of scoring herself. This sence of support and contribution to something outside of herself is now expressed through her field in psychology. Now in a world dealing with COVID-19, Samantha shares what people in the psychology field are going through during such a struggling time. The demand for psychological help has grown immensely during the lockdowns, which is such a large bourdon on the practitioners. Samantha tells how her team manage this stress and heavy workload, and how she is also expanding out to any practitioners who are on their own during the lockdown. ‘Physical activity is now proven to be the #1 factor to decrease depression and anxiety, over and above drugs and therapy together’ – Dr Samantha Mcleod. https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-samantha-mcleod-9b020739/ http://www.samcentre.com smcleod@samcentre.com.au

Ep28: Hard Yakka with Dr Samantha Mcleod (AFL Psychologist; Managing Director & Principal Psychologist - The SAM Centre)

In Episode #41 of the EATYALL Podcast, we dive back into the world of agriculture in my interview with Samantha McLeod, Executive Director of the Georgia Pecan Growers Association. Our visit unfurls a lot of pecan specific stories about why these Georgia grown nuts are so flavorful and sold at such a premium - “all nuts are not created equal.” We also hear from Samantha about what sampling chefs can look like and why it’s important, even during a pandemic because “taste buds don’t lie.” She also talks about an international visit where she learned that some chefs around the world aren’t versed on pecans and how they initially confused them with other nuts.  Later in the episode we hear about feedback Samantha got from her producers after their EATYALL Chef Care Package was distributed to pastry chefs, and you’ll get to hear which question in the Lightning Round was answered, “throwing a burrito!”  Connect with our Guest:   GeorgiaPecan.org   https://instagram.com/georgiapecangrowers  https://facebook.com/GeorgiaPecanGrowersAssociation/     Show Sponsor:  EATYALL Chef Care Package Program   Connect with EATYALL:  https://eatyall.com/  https://findfamilyfarms.com/  Instagram - https://instagram.com/letseatyall  Facebook - https://facebook.com/letseatyall  Twitter - https://twitter.com/letseatyall  LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/letseatyall  The EATYALL Podcast is hosted by Andy Chapman, CEO and founder of EATYALL.
