Madison and Anya have never shied away from talking about mental health — and in past episodes, Anya even shared her initiative to bring a sports psychologist onto the Riveter’s team. Today’s guest is the doctor at the heart of that effort: Dr. Joe Galasso. Together, they explore the powerful intersection of athletics and mental health, and why support systems are essential for athletes navigating public scrutiny, intense competition, and personal identity. Dr. Galasso also discusses the growing destigmatization of mental health, crediting role models like Anya and Madison for helping shift the narrative. Plus, he shares insights from his work with Baker Street Behavioral Health, a practice that supports patients across the lifespan — starting as young as age two.
