My physical body was manifesting my stress, and I still didn't know that at the time.
Ever wondered how a single injury can change the course of your life? Audrey Grunst knows this all too well. Once a Division I collegiate athlete, Audrey faced a physical injury that not only sidelined her sports career but also took a toll on her mental health. In this episode of 'Mental Insights', host Brendan Cutuli chats with Audrey about her journey from the volleyball court to becoming a Licensed Clinical Social Worker.
Audrey opens up about the challenges of losing her athletic identity and how she coped with anxiety and depression during this tumultuous period. She shares how overscheduling herself became a coping mechanism, but it wasn't until she volunteered at a children's hospital that she found her true calling. Now, Audrey dedicates her life to helping others navigate their mental health struggles.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone dealing with the mental aftermath of physical injuries or seeking inspiration for overcoming life's unexpected hurdles.
