Episode 42: Mental Health + Education

During this episode of the Grim Drive Podcast, where we explore mental health through the lens of professional sports and athletes, we discuss Mental Health + Education.

The importance of education with regard to self awareness and mental health has been a topic we have returned to in different ways quite a few times.  In this episode, we discuss the overall overlap between education and mental health, school as one specific form of education (but only one form), the role of schools in mental health education, the importance of lifelong learning, and athletes that champion themselves as lifelong learners.

*The Grim Drive Podcast is a way for people to learn about mental fitness, mental health, and mental illness, through the lens of sports. We want to do our part to further reduce the stigma associated with mental health by highlighting the athletes who have shown strength through vulnerability, spoken up, and spoken out.  We want to provide listeners with mental health education, to raise awareness and reduce risk, maximizing the path to mental fitness.

As a reminder to listeners/viewers, please leave us a review on apple podcasts, or comment on one of our youtube videos with any thoughts.  We guarantee we will respond to all comments and would love the chance to have a dialogue about some of these topics with anyone who is interested to discuss.
