Show by Dr. Stacy Rempel
Who are you when the thing that has always defined you is no longer enough?For Janelle, basketball was more than a sport. It was an outlet, a source of identity, and a place to find stability while life outside the court felt anything but certain. But beneath the accomplishments, she was navigating family challenges and emotions she didn't yet have the language or tools to process.We talk about the pressure to perform, the stories we keep within our families, the difference between looking strong and actually feeling okay, and how early experiences shape the way we learn to show up in the world.Because sometimes the hardest things we carry are the things no one knows we're holding.
