🎙️ In this powerful episode of Managing Our Minds, hosts Dominique Easley and Damien Jacobs sit down with former NFL player Chris Hubbard for a raw, honest conversation about mental health, resilience, and life after football.

From growing up in a small town to playing under the bright lights of the NFL, Chris opens up about the personal battles he’s faced—grief, pressure, and the weight of public expectations. He shares how vulnerability became his strength and how support systems, self-care, and grounded coaching played a key role in his healing journey.

The trio dives deep into the emotional toll of loss, the impact of environment on life decisions, co-parenting challenges, and the mental health pressure placed on athletes from high school to the pros. They also tackle the growing influence of NIL deals on young athletes and discuss what makes a true franchise quarterback—highlighting Shadour Sanders and his potential with the Cleveland Browns.
