Victoria Garrick on The Hidden Opponent, Self-Loving Moments, + Keeping it Real with Body-Image + Mental Health Narratives

The social stigmas surrounding 'mental health' in many cultures of society - from athletes to even spiritualists - continue to remain hidden behind many eyes and smiles. Social media has only increased the impact on most human's mental health in some shape, especially when it comes to one's physical appearance. So thankful to have Victoria Garrick on the show today to raise awareness on these issues and share her story and eye-opening perspective. Victoria is a voice for body-image advocacy and the mental health space. At USC she was a Division I volleyball player and now brings to light the many pressures athletes face through her non-profit advocacy group, The Hidden Opponent; which (btw) partnered with the late legend Kobe Bryant. Whether you're an athlete or not, Victoria's message may help you remember that whatever you are feeling is valid; and you're deserving of your own love and care. More info in show notes.
