ÜBER DIESEN PODCAST 🔗
I’m Mat Wright - a climbing coach focused on real outdoor performance.
A Climber’s Mind explores what actually drives progression on rock - beyond generic training advice.
Through personal stories from my own climbing, and lessons from coaching, I break down the mental, technical, and tactical factors that separate effort from real results.
This isn’t about doing more. It’s about working on the right things, at the right time.
Each episode gives you practical insights you can apply immediately to your own climbing, whether you’re projecting your first 7a or pushing into your hardest routes.

Steve takes us inside the long process behind the first ascent of Rainman, Britain’s first 9b. We explore what it really means to project at your absolute limit, how he co…

But this week, a conversation with my friend John made me question whether obse…
In this solo episode, I reflect on the last few weeks of A Climber’s Mind - including why there’s been a short break from the podcast, what I took from my recent conversation with Conrad Caddy, and how my North Wales trip made me think more deeply about determination, grades, pressure and prioritie…
In this episode, I’m joined by Conrad Caddy to explore the deeper story behind his rapid progression in climbing, including his recent ascent of Superman 8B after only around three years in the sport.

In this episode, I reflect on my recent conversation with Mike Boyd and use it as a starting point to clarify something important about my coaching philosophy.

In this episode of A Climber’s Mind, I sit down with Mike Boyd for a very honest conversation about climbing, having a newborn baby, career pressure, identity, stress, relationships, money, and what performance looks like when life changes dramatically.
We use the conversation almost like a live co…
Over the last couple of months, a lot has changed in my life.
I’ve been balancing the start of this podcast alongside a fairly structured training phase, whilst also trying to organise my life and coaching in a much more deliberate way. In the process, I’ve realised how much low-level pressure and …
Fear of falling is often treated like a bravery problem.
Most climbers think they just need to commit harder, take more practice falls, or become mentally tougher.
But in many cases, fear isn’t actually the problem.
It’s the symptom.
In this episode, I break down why fear of falling is often rooted…
Most climbers think progress comes from doing more.
More sessions.
More effort.
More training.
But the real difference between good climbers and elite climbers isn’t effort. It’s how that effort is applied.
In this episode, I break down:
Why trying hard isn’t enough
What it actually means to “tr…
