Produced by The Quell Foundation, Human First: Beyond the Athlete follows eleven former and current athletes as they share their personal mental health journeys and the challenges they have faced when life and sport become deeply intertwined. Away from the field, these current and former athletes have experienced both the euphoria and the darkness that commitment to excellence can bring. Through honest and vulnerable conversations, the film highlights the experiences athletes often navigate behind the scenes and creates a space for others to see themselves in these stories. Human First: Beyond the Athlete aims to open the door to more honest conversations around mental health in sports and encourage athletes, coaches, and athletic communities to create spaces where vulnerability and asking for help are welcomed.
