Mental Health, Daughters, Water and WEDŪ with JB Hager

Wake. Dad. Drink. Repeat.

This week on the pod we are joined by dad to one, Co-Host/Producer THEMOVE and JB2 with WEDŪ Sports and Lance Armstrong, JB Hager!
We get into JB’s journey with his daughter, Raleigh, not just as a 2x Women's Pro Wakesurf World Champion but also about her mental health. This is a very personal and real episode, where JB and I talk about what it is like as a parent to watch your child struggle with mental health, how scary and hopeless it feels at times, the strains in causes on your relationships, and (probably most importantly) about what it is like to move to the “other side” of that journey.
A huge thanks to JB for coming on the pod and sharing their story and listening to ours. To all of you - if you are ever experiencing these types of challenges and struggles in your life, please know that talking to people about it really does help! Whether that is a professional, a family member, or a friend - knowing you have a support network of your own is so important. You will hear JB and me talk about this alot. If anyone out there is ever needing someone to talk to, I am always happy to share my experiences on this journey and to lend an ear.

While we cover the mental health piece for most of this episode we also talk about WEDŪ, THEMOVE and THEFORWARD podcast, cycling, Operation Get Out, music, the perfect margarita and much more.
