The Mental Health of an Athlete

Jayne Kamin-Oncea-USA TODAY Sports

For today’s episode, we decided to take a look into mental health and how it can impact the performance of professional athletes across a variety of sports.

From Michael Phelps to Naomi Osaka, there have been a multitude of athletes that have spoken out to raise awareness for people struggling with their mental health.

David Chadwick is the founder of RealResponse, an organization that provides tools for collegiate athletes to address and communicate any mental health issues they may be facing. Chadwick joins us to talk about his time as a collegiate athlete and how it led to his creation of RealResponse.
