Um I wanna give advice to younger athletes . Um I recently put out a video that's up on my Instagram right now that talks about the mental health um aspect when your mental health isn't prioritized and what issues kind of arise when that does happen . And I do like the messages I got in response to that video um like brought tears to my eyes .
Um So I think that just making sure you're mentally sound before you're putting your role in the fields . Um And just prioritizing your mental health , like how you're feeling on a day to day basis while you're playing at a high level is really important . Um But some things that I picked up on the field that I think I've developed through the college game is , um , just the , the speed of play is so different .
Um , again , I brought up injuries . Um , there's the mental aspect of it and I think that is a big thing that I picked up was the mental aspect of it . Um , confidence can make or break your game .
Um , confidence can rise or fall just based on outside factors , which is something that I realized a lot this year . Um So I think that just making sure you're mentally sound before you're putting your role in the fields . Um And just prioritizing your mental health , like how you're feeling on a day to day basis while you're playing at a high level is really important .
Um And struggling with that was i it's one of the hardest things is coming back from injury . Um Just the mental aspect of it having to take time off from like the thing that for some people and for me , it was one of the things that truly like was my drive through life . Um at the end of the day , all I wanted to do is just get on the field .
