Person Player Professional
Person Player Professional is about recognizing that you are a person first, and a player and/or professional second. We are here to address mental health/wellness in the world of athletics--and beyond--from both athlete and staff perspective through story telling and expert interviews. The objective is to create a safe space for open dialogue and full transparency, as well as challenge the systems that drive work/sport to become one's identity.
