#Verified: Dr Margaret Osborne

The calibre of people willing to jam with the Dojo still leaves us speechless sometimes... 🤷

Like Prof Gene Moyle, Dr Emma Redding, and Dr Veronique Richard, Dr Margaret Osborne has been an influential figure in our own practice and research. Where Gene and Emma are pioneering peak performance and holistic well-being in the world of dance — and Veronique in circus — Margaret is leading the charge in the music sphere.

A registered psychologist and Senior Lecturer in Psychology and Music at the University of Melbourne, Margaret straddles the applied and academic worlds with envy-inducing ease. She sets one hell of a high bar.

Here, we speak to Margaret about her personal experiences with performance anxiety, the role of self-compassion, and thoughts on virtual reality.
