In this episode, we get into two of our favorite things to talk about: athletics and mental health. As former collegiate athletes, we talk about the impacts of team culture on the mental health of the athletes. This is an ongoing topic of discussion, so there's more to come in future episodes!

TRIGGER WARNING: At the beginning of the episode we discuss some statistics related to mental health in athletes. The rates of anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation in athletes is highlighted.

Spring and early summer have been very busy and full of change for both of us. So we went into this episode with no expectations, wanting to talk about our boundaries as therapists. We explore the challenges of implementing and maintaining boundaries, as well as the benefits of doing so. We share some general expectations for our own boundaries, in addition to what tangible, practical things we do to protect our own peace.
