Podcast ALERT! I had the privilege of joining the Grief in Brief podcast for an insightful conversation titled “Performers and Athletes Are People Too.” In this episode, we explored the intersection of grief, mental health, and the unique pressures faced by athletes and performers at all levels—whether college, professional, or Olympic.
Grief in Brief is a podcast hosted by Ken Barringer, LMHC a mental health counselor with a specialty in grief and loss. He is the director of H.E.A.L.I.N.G. (Helping Everyone Accept Loss Instead of Neglecting Grief).
Have you ever considered how the pressure to perform can impact one’s mental health or how grief may manifest for athletes and performers? How has this shaped your understanding of support and healing?
