About The Athlete Playbook
The Athlete Playbook is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded by Simone Harper, a former Division I track and field athlete. Simone experienced firsthand the unique challenges student-athletes face both on and off the field and recognized the need for accessible resources to support athletes’ mental health, academic balance, and career development during and after their sports careers.
Simone launched The Athlete Playbook as a nonprofit dedicated to holistic athlete support. As part of the nonprofit’s mission, Simone also produces The Athlete Playbook Podcast, which features authentic stories and guidance from athletes, coaches, and experts—providing an additional platform to educate and inspire the athletic community.
