    S2E1 - Injured..now what

    Welcome to the second season of GHD Podcast. In the first episode back, I want to start a conversation around injuries and their impact. We all know the sport is physical and dangerous. But how much have we thought and prepared for it? A severe injury hit our athlete and it has brought up all kinds of thoughts. Share this one around, let's start the conversation here.

    S1E7 - Where do we find female coaches?

    Originally planned to drop on the first week of January 2024, we are now in the last week of January 2024! A brief opener about the beginning of the PWHL's season and onto a topic close to home for many. Female coaches in women's minor hockey. Where do we find them, and why aren't there more of them. A brief story about my personal experiences, and some thoughts on how we can possibly see more entering the ranks! I think this will be a topic for many to engage in.
