In this episode, Flame Bearers Founder and CEO Jamie Mittelman looks back on the Making it to Milan season. She reflects on ways that Milan Cortina athletes like Alyssa Liu and Eileen Gu redefined success in their own terms, the visibility void that Paralympic athletes continue to face, and the ways that joy fuels athletes like Liu Jaiyu and Brenna Huckaby. Jamie also looks to what’s next, with a spotlight on Olympic Track and Field athlete and Strong Like a Mother co-author Shannon Rowbury, who will be leading Flame Bearers conversations with athlete moms through the month of May.
