In this episode, Kim chats with Music Sociologist Rosie Mead about athletes leveraging the power of music to change the way they feel. Rosie explains that we don't always chase the goal (the medal, the trophy, the blue ribbon), we chase the feeling that comes with achieving that goal. In order to best thrive in our daily lives, we need to ask ourselves each morning how we want to feel. Then, we turn to music to access those feelings. Listen to Rosie explain how you can optimize your athlete journey by setting "goals with soul".
