Mental Health for Young Athletes – Part 2: What Can We Learn From Simone Biles? – With Michael Atunrase

This week, coach Mike is back and he’s showing his perspective on Simone Biles’ Olympic performances and what lessons we can learn from them. Michael Atunrase is not only the founder and head coach of Resilience Fitness & Sports Performance Training, but he is also a mental health advocate. He shares our belief that mental health should be an equally important part of sports training, as are warm-ups, strength training, and cardio.

Today we bring in Nicole Osei,M.Ed., MSW, Anti-Rac Today we bring in Nicole Osei,M.Ed., MSW, Anti-Racist Consultant and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Coach and one of Amanda's oldest and dearest friends (yes, my friend's are brilliant!). As three white women running a podcast and business, we want to make sure that we are doing our own anti-racist work everyday.  Fortunately, Nicole agreed to record our conversation so you could hear her share her experience, enlighten us, and teach us about anti-racism and DEI.  Nicole also gave us one of the greatest nuggets about anxiety and white supremacy that we have ever heard-- and I (Amanda) have used it in almost every therapy session since.

So take a listen to learn what Nicole thinks white parents should know, how we can work towards raising anti-racist children, and even what we can do at Virginia Family Therapy to run a better business.

This was recorded before the murder for Daunte Wright, but is being released early because more opportunity to listen to Nicole means more opportunity for everyone listening to do their own anti-racist work.

Thanks for listening to this one. It is important.

To reach Nicole about her work as a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Consultant, you can contact her at nicole.osei@gmail.com.
