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 Student-Athlete Voice ft. Will Bush
In this episode, we are joined by Will Bush, a student-athlete at the University of Portland. As the SAAC president, Will is on a mission to ensure that the voices and needs of student-athletes are heard and addressed, especially when it comes to mental health.
Will shares his struggles with mental health and how he's navigated them throughout his collegiate journey. Despite facing several injuries that have sidelined him from competition for much of his career, Will remains resilient and committed to fostering a supportive environment for his fellow athletes.
Tune in as we explore the intersection of college athletics and mental health, gaining valuable perspectives from Will's personal experiences and his efforts to initiate positive change within the athletic community.
