They spend decades dedicating their mind and body to their sport with a singular goal in mind. And then they retire. What happens after the Olympics? Olympians and psychologists discuss the challenges in retiring from competition. Stéphane Grenier spent 10 months in Rwanda during the civil war in 1994. He then spent 10 more years haunted by his experience, and confronting the military's mental health system. He eventually created his own program of peer support to address what he considered outmoded treatments.
