We welcome back sports psychologist Dr. Kristin Keim to talk about the kinds of mental health issues Olympians, Paralympians and other elite athletes are facing in 2025. This includes finding your voice, what it's like to be an American athlete today, social media, cyberbullying, disordered eating, and more.

As always, Kristin is frank about the pressures athletes face today and about the advice she gives her clients. It's definitely therapeutic to listen to her!

Learn more about Kristin at her website, and follow her on Instagram.

We also have a ton of news from the Olympic world, including updates from:

Paris 2024 - A cyberbullying sentence, swimming in the Seine, venue legacy news.
Milano-Cortina 2026 - Plan B scrapped, and an upate about Russian and Belorussian athlete participation.
LA 2028 - Opening and Closing Ceremonies venues - the possibility of air taxis - public transport news - a farewell to cardboard beds?

Plus, tons of members of Team Keep the Flame Alive are doing things to make TKFLASTAN proud! Also check out Listener Tommy's website (https://tommyaphillips.com/medal-mayhem/) to see how he did in projecting the medals at Paris 2024.
