145: Athlete Brain is What Makes You and What Breaks You

Athlete brain is a really great attribute to have… and it can also be what breaks you. Today I explore the different ways athlete brain can show up in our lives and how to navigate it in different seasons. Leveraging and adapting to athlete brain is ultimately what leads us to the athletic maturity we seek and need in our lives. Every season of life is an opportunity to learn and become. I also share how I overcame my toxic self (let me know if you try it!). Enjoyed this episode? I'd love it if you would share in IG stories and tag me @brianna.battles Pregnant?
