The Athlete Confidential
Welcome to The Athlete Confidential where we believe that we are humans first, and athletes second. Stories by athletes for athletes that focus on topics coaches don't always discuss at practice. We are not here to talk about performance goals, training plans or game tactics... well maybe a little, but, our main focus is to cover topics outside of training and performance. Rather we aim to encourage conversations about mental health, abuse, relationships, education, equality and much more. At The Athlete Confidential we seek to empower the human within every athlete.

The Power of Story Sharing ft. Jonathan Curran
This time, we're diving into the world of student-athletes with Jonathan Curran, a golfer in his fifth year at Saint Mary's who's changing the game. See, Jonathan loves golf, but life threw him a curveball with some his mental health struggles. Instead of keeping it under wraps, he decided to start his own podcast called "Stories by Student Athletes." In this episode we get to hear about his personal journey and his mission to help de-stigmatize the misconceptions of mental health pertaining to athletes. Join us as we chat with Jonathan about how he's turning his own struggles into strength and giving other athletes a platform to do the same. It's all about being open, sharing stories, and showing that it's okay not to be okay.
