Episode 244 March 16, 2022 – Heather Harman, Nick Dryden – College Athletes and Mental Health

The mental health of athletes is becoming more and more of a focus.  What about after their careers are over?  How does transitioning from a competitive athlete to a non-competitive person affect one’s mental health?  We discussed this, among some possible solutions with former Drury University standout women’s basketball player, Heather Harman, and former Missouri State University men’s soccer player, Nick Dryden. Thank you to my guests for their valuable perspective and sharing their experiences as they navigated their identity transition.
