I am fortunate enough to work with these great people!
From training rooms to competition days, women power our program in every way. Proud to celebrate National Women in Sports Day today and every day. 💙 ✨ 🤘

#ThankfulThursday. Today I am thankful for reminders. Reminders of good times. Reminders of why we live. Reminders that our support systems are larger than we think. #RememberYourWhy #GratitudeForLife

Late #ThankfulThursday. Today I am thankful for people that know what they are doing. I was completely lost and almost lost my mind. In comes someone that knows what they are doing. #SavedTheDay #AlmostLostIt #TrustTheProfessionals

#ThankfulThursday. Today I am thankful for seeing others have success. Everyone has their own path and there is plenty of struggle going on, let’s be happy for others that work hard and find their success. #WorkHard #BeProudOfOthers #TheyStruggleToo

Today I am thankful for perspective. Sometimes work seems hard. But an athlete today told me I’m lucky, I get to work with all different sports. He’s not wrong #PerspectiveIsEverything #IAmLucky #HelpingHelps #ThankfulThursday

Today’s reason to be thankful is the fact that how we respond to any situation is completely up to us. We CAN control our own responses. #AttitudeOFGratitude #Wins #ControlYourself #ThankfulThursday

These past few weeks I was honored to have the opportunity to work as an athletic trainer for the US Paralympic team. This prompted me to return to my #ThankfulThursday posts. Today I am thankful for opportunities to help others and see the world. #AttitudeOfGratitude

If you are having thoughts of ending life and need help there are plenty of people that will help you. I’d rather talk to you for hours on end than speak at your funeral. Please reach out or call 988 (the suicide hotline). #YouMatter #ThereIsHelp #IWishYouWouldHaveCalled
