Business adjacency popped back up as Behavioral Health Business reported on Cerebral’s acquisition of Resilience Lab and recapped the company’s controversies after its 2021 partnership with Biles; no new action by Biles was reported, but her prior endorsement remains part of the narrative around athlete brand risk. Behavioral Health Business

Social media wise, lifestyle posts kept her in the conversation: EssentiallySports chronicled her vacation photos from the British Virgin Islands and a 24 hour Las Vegas stopover that triggered a flood of where to next suggestions; these are light but sustain public engagement without signaling a competitive pivot.
