Candid Conversations with Coach Blu and Marisa Robinson: Tackling Addiction and Mental Health

Our message has been clear, erase addiction and replace it with things of greater value such as health, recreation, service, relationships, and team unity.
Ever felt overwhelmed by addiction or mental health issues? You're not alone. In this episode of the 'Addict II Athlete Podcast', Coach Blu, a licensed mental health therapist, and Marisa Robinson, a Certified Recreational Therapist, open up the floor for an engaging discussion on these critical topics. What makes this episode unique is its interactive format, allowing listeners to submit questions or join live via Zoom. This creates a dynamic and supportive environment where real-time concerns can be addressed.
Coach Blu and Marisa kick off the conversation by thanking their supporters and diving into the harmful effects of alcohol. They explore alternative approaches like subliminal messaging used in North Carolina's Chapel Hill to combat addiction subtly. The duo also tackles fear mongering in the media, specifically around the so-called 'rainbow fentanyl'. Their candid discussion highlights the importance of protective factors to help individuals cope with post-traumatic stress.
One particularly touching segment is about proxy running, where they invite listeners to honor loved ones lost to addiction or suicide by having athletes run or recreate in their memory. This heartfelt gesture aims to carry forward the messages of those who can no longer speak for themselves. Whether you're battling addiction, supporting someone who is, or simply interested in mental wellness, this episode offers valuable insights and a sense of community.
