Wrestling with the Mind

Welcome to Wrestling with the Mind, where I explore mental health journeys. I sit down with guests from the world of wrestling, entertainment, fitness, video games & more to discuss their struggles with mental health, steps they have taken to improve their wellbeing, and the strategies they use to maintain their mental fitness. Through these conversations, I aim to provide insight, support, and inspiration to anyone looking to prioritize their mental health and live their best life. Join us as we wrestle with the mind and work towards a healthier and happier future.
