It's Mental Health Awareness month and on this episode we're joined by former Duke, Michigan State, and Maine Women's Basketball head coach and author Joanne P. McCallie. "Coach P" pops on to talk about learning of her diagnosis of bipolar 1 and 2 at and early stage in her career, keeping it quiet, finding help through therapy, all while finding success on the court and dealing with her own struggles. McCallie was featured recently on Good Morning America with Robin Roberts to talk about her journey and new book "Secret Warrior". This is a fantastic interview that you'll be wanting to know more!
