This week Talk Derby To Me is the first of a two part show on supporting athletes in sport, as Mike Menu from the Sashbear Foundation joins Molly for a conversation about The Family Connections Program and effective tools for support. This week focuses on validation and how sport can be one of the tools of self-regulation -- until it's not.

As a heads up, there is mention of suicide in this episode.
