In this episode we talk to Caleb Lott and Jared Maisel who athletic trainers who have worked (and continue to) in secondary settings in Asia. In this episode we talk about their experiences and how things are similar and also very different from the setting we are used to in the United States. Caleb has been working in Asia for 8 years and has been raising a family in Asia and talks about the great experiences his job has provided him and his family. Jared started off working in Asia and now has moved to Brussels and is starting to build a new program for athletic training and expose those he care for to what the profession can do.

We also discuss APATS, Asia Pacific Athletic Trainer’s Society, and how it was formed and the reason for its creation. Both Caleb and Jared were there at the beginning of APATS. They share how and why it was created and what the goals are of the group as it continued to grow and build more of a presence in Asia. If you have any interest in working in Asia, this is a great episode to learn so much and get a much better idea of what it all entails.

Chelsea Lowe is an athletic trainer that has hit every goal she has set out for herself during her career. She is ambitious, caring and will do anything she can to help the patients she serves. All of these are admirable qualities and important in being an athletic trainer. But what happens when it becomes too much and that starts to impact your ability to take care of yourself and ultimately those you serve? This is what we talk about in this episode.

Chelsea shares how things shifted in her career and it ultimately led her to moving out of the athletic training profession in the traditional sense of providing care. She has moved into working with a secondary athletic insurance company that has allowed her to bring new balance to her life. We talk about the void that has been left in her identity since leaving traditional AT practice and how she has worked to continue to fill that and identify what might fill that in the future.

If you’ve been stressed as an AT or unsure about your future in the profession this is a great episode to hear what someone else went through.
