In this episode, I sit down with Che’landra Moore-Quarles, a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, National Certified Counselor, and super mom, to explore the complex intersection of athletics, concussion recovery, and mental health. Che’landra shares her background working with athletes both professionally and within the family unit, offering insight into the current concussion etiquette in college football. We discuss the often-overlooked emotional struggles athletes face after a concussion—such as feelings of guilt, isolation, or abandonment from their team—and why recovery extends far beyond the physical injury. Together, we also highlight the importance of self-care for parents and providers, and unpack the critical differences between physical healing and mental recovery.
