Unmasking Mental Health in Athletes: Former Major League Baseball Player Mike Marjama
Could you imagine giving up your life's dream, something you have worked your entire life for, in order to serve your life's true purpose?
My guest on Episode 25 is former Major League Baseball player Mike Marjama who abruptly retire from the Seattle Mariners in 2018 in order to make a greater positive impact off the field than he ever could on the field.
In high school, Mike suffered from an eating disorder that would threaten his health and well-being, and ultimately sideline him from sports for an entire year.
As a male athlete suffering from from an eating disorder Mike not only had to overcome challenges he had with body image but also the stigma that only women struggle with eating disorders.
After seeking help, Mike recovered to restart his baseball career; one that he would take him all the way to the major leagues.
In the episode, Mike get very real about his struggles with mental illness, how he was able to use his challenges as motivation to follow his baseball dream.
He also opens up about the shocking revelation he had when he finally made it to the Mariners big league roster and his role now as an ambassador for the National Eating Disorders Association.
Listen in to the the decision Mike made that landed him on all the major news shows including Good Morning America, CBS This Morning, ESPN, and UNINTERRUPTED.
