Your struggle is if you're following somebody else's definition of success- whether it's, you know, society telling us to get a good job with a car and all the money in the house- you're never going to be happy, because that's not actually what will lead you to happiness, but by following your own self.
What happens when the lights go out on a professional athlete's career? For Prince Daniels Jr., a former NFL running back, it meant confronting some of his darkest moments. In this heartfelt episode of 'Choose Your Struggle', host Jay Shifman sits down with Prince to uncover the mental health challenges that came with life on and off the field.
Prince candidly discusses his battles with depression and suicidal thoughts during his NFL days, shedding light on the often-hidden struggles athletes face. But it's not all about the struggles; Prince also shares the tools that helped him find peace, including financial planning and meditation. He emphasizes the importance of defining success on your own terms rather than society's expectations.
Whether you're an athlete, a mental health advocate, or someone seeking inspiration, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice for anyone facing mental health challenges. Tune in for a conversation that aims to break down stigmas and inspire positive change.
