Andre De Grasse joins headversity as Resilience Ambassador
Workforce mental health tech company, headversity, launches Resilience Ambassador Program with seven-time Olympic & World Championship medalist, Andre De Grasse.
CALGARY, AB, May 20, 2021 /CNW/ - headversity, a leading provider of preventative mental health solutions for employers, announced today it has launched its Resilience Ambassador Program with Andre De Grasse, the first Canadian sprinter to win three medals in a single Olympic Games. While De Grasse is best known for his Rio Games medal haul, he's overcome plenty of adversity throughout his career, including being sidelined by injury and illness for nearly all of 2017 and 2018. However, his positive outlook, mindfulness and commitment to mental preparation has seen him to return to top form, while balancing life as a father, an entrepreneur and philanthropist.
"We all face adversity, whether it be in our personal lives or in the workplace," said De Grasse. "I'm excited to join headversity as a Resilience Ambassador. They're shifting the focus from mental health treatment to prevention and high-performance mental preparation. Adversity is inevitable in life and we need to train our minds to be prepared for whatever is thrown our way."
"headversity welcomes Andre as a Resilience Ambassador and more importantly as a relatable and inspirational individual who is a champion for the performance side of mental health," said Dr. Ryan Todd, headversity CEO and co-founder. "His voice around mental health, combined with his impeccable track record of performing through adversity on the world's largest stage, makes him an ideal candidate to represent headversity and help us with our mission of setting the new standard for workforce mental health through preventative training.
