Ep. 26 | When Med School Meets Fencer w/ Kamali Thompson
She's a Ortho Resident, US National Champion, Team USA Fencer, Olympic Alternate 2021, and Blogger ( @saberandastethoscope). WHEW! Kamali Thompson is one for accomplishments, especially living her life as the underdog, graduated high school two years earlier and didn't start fencing until her later years (something that competitors of her caliber started from a young age). But, as Kamali shows, it doesn't matter what age or level you come in; all that counts is the plan and effort.

Ep. 25 | Most people don't post the process w/ Colton Brown
Being an Olympian comes with its fair share of sacrifices. Colton Brown, U.S. N.J. Olympian, shares his athletic experience in a way that pro-athletes, student-athletes, coaches, parents and the rest of the community can gain values from. He's transparent about the hardship of the process, importance of sport psychologists and community, and why he'd never take this opportunity for granted. A great episode of perspective as we've kicked off the 2021 Olympics.  Colton's Instagram: Here  [Reminders and Announcements] Candid Conscious Conversations - Register Here  Intro to Athlete Development in collaboration with Gladine from Iammentallytough- Register Here Free "Build a Dream" Workshop sign up *Limited workshops available* - Register Here  5 Steps to Jump Start a Conversation - Download Here
