📖 Head to Morgan’s Message to read, “Overcoming Obstacles” by Haley Kammann. “Bad shots happen in life and on the golf course. After experiencing both good and bad shots, I’ve learned that how I respond to the bad ones will determine my success. I’ve come to understand that I can’t control everything, but as long as I try my best, I should be proud of myself.” #mentalhealthawareness #thementalmatchup

🎙 Welcome to the final episode of our miniseries on mental health support systems! In this special episode, Ashton Miller joins TMM. Ashton and Schuyler met as freshmen on the Duke Soccer Team, and have been best friends since. Ashton now influences soccer culture as a photographer, creative director, and co-founder of The Footy Temple. She studied psychology and grew up in a family of professional athletes who shaped her understanding of mental health and toughness from a young age. We explore how Ashton adapts her support based on Scuyler’s different mental health chapters and the importance of recognizing that not everyone can be the main support for others. This conversation offers valuable insights for supporting the people closest to you. We hope you enjoy our last episode of the miniseries! #thementalmatchup #mentalhealthawareness https://lnkd.in/eZTcFB7F

📖 Head to Morgan's Message to read, "8 Meter Crash" by Daniela Trinidad. "I wasn't diagnosed with anxiety to have to cope with it and change my life because of dwelling on it. I was diagnosed with it for the purpose of helping other athletes and advocate within our community regarding mental health for athletes facing similar battles both inside and outside the lines of the lacrosse field."
