Rekindled: Samantha Schultz on Mental Health after the Olympics
Manage episode 484228612 series 1610808
In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month and Military Appreciation Month, we're rekindling our interview with Olympian Samantha Schultz, former modern pentathlete and member of the US Army World Class Athlete Program.
Samantha realized her goal of becoming an Olympian--but then after Tokyo 2020, she discovered underlying mental health issues, including an eating disorder, that turned her life upside down.
In early 2024, Samantha shared her journey with us and how she's working toward better mental health.
