Summary

To kick off Mental Health Awareness Month, Dr. Nicole Davis, retired 2x Olympian and medalist, post-doctoral fellow and celebrated high-performance coach, is back to chat about the realities of mental health disorders and high performance athletics. This episode tackles complex topics like how people develop bipolar and personality disorders, what fuels narcissistic personality disorder, and how to manage them. Nicole breaks down the essentials of emotional regulation, maintaining healthy boundaries, and how to support someone with a personality disorder without getting caught up in the belief that you can fix them or should have done more. She also sheds light on the pressures of being a high performance athlete, what healthy motivation looks like, and the importance of normalizing vulnerability and self-care in sports. Whether you're looking to better support yourself or someone you care about, or to build more resilience for life’s ebbs and flows, this episode has the validation and information you need to accept what is and move forward in a meaningful way.
