About this listen

We sit down with DJ Ahana, a former college basketball player turned mental health therapist. From team manager to starter, DJ shares his unconventional journey through college sports and what kept him motivated through it all. DJ eventually discovered an interest in pursuing a career in mental health where he went on a personal discovery to self-love and understanding of himself outside of sport.

We explore DJ's path from college athlete to mental health professional and his desire to share his passion with other athletes like himself. As a young Black man, DJ candidly expresses his personal struggles and the challenges he faced in finding his place in the mental health field.
