We’re going to try something that is a little bit different for this podcast. If you can’t already tell from over 70 episodes, I love sport and the power it has to positively impact individuals and the greater community.
However, I think it’s also important to acknowledge that not everything is sunshine and roses, bringing us to todays episode.
I’ve teamed up with one of the most popular guests, Todd Buschkuehl. Todd is a medical student with lived experience about todays topic. CONCUSSIONS IN SPORT. You can find out more about his journey in sport WAY back in season one, and can find his youtube channel via the link in the shownotes.
I don’t want to spend too long introducing this subject other than saying that this topic is something we should all be aware of and take seriously, as athletes, as family members, as coaches and as fans. A knock to the head isn’t something to be brushed off. The purpose of this episode isn’t to provide medical advice, but it’s to help get the conversation started and point you in the direction of some resources that could be found helpful.
As always, I’d love to hear from you if you’ve liked this episode or found it interesting, reach out on Instagram or via email. I’d also love that if there’s someone in your life who’d benefit from this episode, or any episode, please share it with them.
Last thing from me before we get into it, there is discussion about mental health, depression, and suicide in this episode. If you’re in Australia you can reach out to organisations like Lifeline or BeyondBlue for assistance.
