- **Event Description**: New York Knicks Star & NBA Champion Karl-Anthony Towns on Grief, Loss, and High PerformanceAbout this EventTurning Tragedy Into Triumph: New York Knicks Star & NBA Champion Karl-Anthony Towns on Grief, Loss, and High PerformanceIn 2020, NBA champion Karl-Anthony Towns lost his mother, Jacqueline, while still expected to show up, lead a team, and perform at the highest level of professional sports. Towns shares candidly how he turned devastating loss into a driving force rather than letting it derail him, what he's learned about carrying grief while still competing at an elite level, and how honoring his mother's memory has become part of his motivation on and off the court. A powerful look at what it really takes to keep moving forward when life gives you every reason to stop.About World Mental Health Day FestivalThe Project Healthy Minds World Mental Health Day Festival is where visionaries, thought leaders, culture-markers, and advocates gather to celebrate and shape the future of mental health.
