July 26 – Aug 1, Highlights and Lowlights

? This week our highlight goes to the U.S. Women’s Gymnastics Team, who both highlighted the importance of mental health through the actions and efforts of Simone Biles, and came away with the all around silver medal at the Olympics. 

? This week we give a thumbs down and our lowlight of the week to the Olympic Committee for ignoring the concerns of six female fencers when they spoke up against a male teammate who is under investigation for sexual misconduct.
