These resources are intended for general educational purposes and are not a substitute for individualized mental health care. Not every resource will be right for every person, and I encourage you to reach to myself of your current therapist if you have questions about a particular recommendation.

On The Reading List 

Thought-provoking reads for life, sport and everything in between. 

This is about running .webp

​The coach that every athlete needs (in my opinion).​

​

This Is About Running. This Is Not About Running isn't just a book about the things that will help you become a better runner. It's also about becoming a more in-tune athlete (and probably a little more in-tune with yourself as a person, too).​

​

The book really highlights the importance of knowing yourself, being honest with yourself (even when it's not what you want to hear), and taking a minute to actually check in with yourself.​Coach Bennett has a way of making you feel like he's having a conversation with you rather than just giving you another pep talk. He's relatable, funny, and the book is such an easy read. And honestly, you don't even need to be a runner to appreciate it.

 

​At the end of the day, this book is a reminder that we're people first, athletes second. And sometimes the most important work has absolutely nothing to do with running.​

 

Any athlete, regardless of their sport, can find something to connect with in this one.
