In this special episode, Victoria sits down with National Athletic Trainers' Association's 2023 President's Award recipient, Stephanie Kuzydym (@stephkuzy) a reporter from the Louisville Courier Journal, to discuss her viral story "Safer Sidelines". We take a behind-the-scenes look at why she wrote this massive 4 piece series, what the response has been, and her favorite moments.

Be sure to read her series for yourself. It's been called "the most comprehensive series that highlights the issues around athlete health, safety, and wellbeing".
