Victoria is the founder of The Hidden Opponent. She addresses the book's important messages about mental health and the struggles young athletes face such as depression, anger, alcohol abuse and even suicidal thoughts. After reading Geese Are Never Swans I began asking an old question. The view of today’s sports world. I ask, “Where are your kids? Not just physically somewhere but mentally.” That’s Play It Forward.
