What is different about working with athletes? Drew Klobuchar is here to talk about sports, city team loyalty, and how athletes relate. We'll explore the role of sports in childhood and its effect on psychological safety, as well as the pressures and expectations athletes face from their environments and families. The conversation also delves into crash-outs, attachment theory, and the distinctions between mental performance and mental health.
