“Known at all. I'm not a sports fan, I'm a people fan, which means where people choose to work, then I follow them and I've got to learn their world. So obviously you've got sports, specialist sports psychologists are the specialist. I come in a bit left field. I was in forensics at the time, but I was still teaching at university. One of my previous medical students, I teach medicine, went as a doctor with a cycling team that was working for the Olympics. So I knew nothing about this. And he called on me. He's an excellent student, but he wanted an opinion on somebody who is a professional who was struggling mentally. So I came in just to give an opinion and work with this guy. Now, I can only name people who've gone public, so I can't give names. And he excelled. And then I can name the next person at that point. I was introduced to Chris Hoy. And Chris.”

“Work and that meant really I need to do general adults. So I then set off in general adults psychiatry, did a lot of clinical work 20 years in the NHS but progressed because the difficult cases are often personality disorders and how you manage them and particularly forensic style so psychopathic colloquially called we'd call them dissocial personality disorders. How do you manage these people? So I ended up becoming by default a specialist in this field and then ended up working in a secure hospital working with people under the mental health act who were detained of transgressed the law so then you go into the legal aspects of how we deal with people who have transgressed the law and are now held under the health act almost indefinitely and you try and obviously get people back out of these secure hospitals if they're safe to come into the community so that in a nutshell is how my career develops you end up with a vast experience of”

“Yeah, I mean, I went through medical training, and then you do your routine job, so you medd some surgery and so on, and I trained in general practice and then went into psychiatry when I hit psychiatry as one of my disciplines during training for GP. From there in psychiatry, you look across a vast spectrum. You select your job, so I covered general adult psychiatry, then I covered old age psychiatry, child psychiatry, learned disability, and adding into forensics. So when you've done all that kind of training experience, then you start to really specialize. And initially I was going into specialize in old age psychiatry. I felt what the service at that time was a long time ago was quite poor for old age. There was very little research. It's before I recept the antideria drug came out. And I wanted to go into that field. But by virtue of the fact I'm a teacher, I got a post in sort of teaching in university along cycling.”

“My friends, I'll laugh at this because I've got five degrees. So effectively, I started off doing mathematics and teaching, but then I went back into medicine. And then from there, their scientific qualifications got medical degree. And then I went through the Royal College. So you specialize in psychiatry and get your membership exams. And then I've specialized again in looking at things like, because I got involved with sports people, I did an MSc so that we look at sports medicine itself again and brush up on my medical background. So I'm still a doctor at heart. And then because I teach at university, I did an MSE in medical education. So I sort of again following what I've said as a theme. I think what do I need and what would help me to do this? And then, so that's why I've collected these degrees. So that is my academic background.”

“That's a tough starter. I would say that I'm a person who wants to help people. So what I've done throughout life is say in order to help people, what do I need? So one of the things I felt I needed when I was a young man is I needed a medical background. So all of the work I've done, like in psychiatry and particularly becoming consort psychiatrist, it wasn't that I wanted to be that, it was I needed that in order to be able to help people effectively. So my experience in life has always been the more people I can help and the more circumstances the better equipped I'll be to deal with whatever comes through the door so I think of it slightly different to be about a career it's more of an approach and an objective in life and then what I need to do is learn in order to be good at that.”

“Well, now we're really getting to before we even borne the emotional memories starting to react to that trauma. Your parent might suddenly say, oh, you're just an idiot, but something might have happened just before that where you've got one out of ten and you were bottom of the spelling test. And the two together get emotionally tangled. And that then damages the circus. So you get people often who have very low self-esteem. I'm going to be controversial”

“I'm the person who wants to help people. I've started working with Chris Hoy. I went undercover to the Athens Olympics so we could make sure that he got his gold medal and running a Solomon. The emotion that that guy was getting at that point must have been so unpleasant that partway through a world championship he shook hands and walked out. The very first step is And that is what winners do. For people to shift, they've got to have psychological mindedness, which means they've got to understand that it's not about what happens to us in life, it's how we deal with it.”

“We have beliefs within us that are just too hard to remove, and they may have come from traumatic experiences. Let's learn how to put it in a box. Professor Steve”
