As a goalie for the Canadian Women’s Hockey team, Sami Jo Small won 3 Olympic medals, 5 World Championships, and was twice named MVP of the Women’s World Hockey Championship.

 She is also the author of a new book named, The Role I Played: Canada’s Greatest Olympic Hockey Team.

 In this special first anniversary episode of The 20/20 Podcast, I had the incredible pleasure of chatting with Sami about her journey as an athlete, parallels between sports and medical professions (her grandfather, father, brother, and sister-in-law are all optometrists!), and what it means to play your role with the greater good in mind.
