Che’landra shares her background working with athletes both professionally and within the family unit, offering insight into the current concussion etiquette in college football. We discuss the often-overlooked emotional struggles athletes face after a concussion—such as feelings of guilt, isolation, or abandonment from their team—and why recovery extends far beyond the physical injury. Together, we also highlight the importance of self-care for parents and providers, and unpack the critical differences between physical healing and mental recovery.
