Rhoda Kithure is not a first-time guest on our channel. In this latest episode, she continues to shed light on new angles of Sports and Mental health from fresh perspectives. Rhoda speaks of the part of her work that involves assessing sportsmen’s performances by dissecting the mental health causes that could affect their output. While this goes against the norm of sports coaches encouraging athletes to only focus on performance and neglect their mental health, she has found a way around this harmful norm in performing her duties. Mental health is generally an individual struggle and it is for this reason that athletes,, more so the ones in individual sports, need the most support they can get. This is where team sports have an upper hand in having shared experiences in the course of their career. This episode is a powerful insight into the mental health struggles that occur in the Sports industry and the industry game-changers that have revolutionised the way mental health is handled for the benefit of sportsmen.
