Season 4: Episode 53: Laurie Regallis: Athletic Trainer
Stories are the purpose of #Between2BlueDevils. The theme of the podcast is “everyone has a story worth being told.” This could not resonate more than it does after this episode. Sitting down with Laurie was such a pleasure.
It is always interesting to interview an individual who see’s how the puzzle pieces of life come together. Generally this is an awareness that comes with age and experience, but in her case, this wisdom has come at an early age.
Laurie cherishes her role as a mother and wife. You will hear the passion in her voice as she shares the story of how she and her husband, Jason, knew each other in the early years of their life…drifted…and then were brought back together.
Passion and love will scream loudly as she shares with us all about her daughter, her adventure as a mom, and how parenthood has caused her to embrace “childlike wonder.”
It was our conversation about being curious like a child that really impacted me during this part of the episode. So often we lose childlike curiosity. Laurie and I chat about that, where it goes, and how do we recapture that quality.
When not being wife and mom Laurie is busy taking care of hundreds of athletes as our athletic trainer. She shares with us all about her love of sports, her love of serving others, and her love of being on the sideline of whichever sport might be in season.
As our conversation unfolded about her role as AT you could see her love of her profession in her eyes and hear it in her voice. What jumped out at me was how much she values relationships. She takes pride in knowing each athlete on a personal level and building trust with them. This affirms her calling. She is doing what she does to change lives. After all, it was through an athletic trainer that her life was changed as well.
It is always intriguing to hear how one becomes who they are. When I hear about the role that someone in a school played in a person’s life I get really excited. For Laurie it was her AT, Rudy, who had such and impact on her that she wanted to be come an AT just like her. Her AT was more than someone who helped with her injuries…she was a second mom, a friend, a therapist, and a mentor.
The power of relationship.
Like her mentor Rudy, Laurie demonstrates the power of positive relationships in her everyday life. She keeps her door open for every student who needs help, in any way she can provide it.
You are going to be inspired by this young lady and her story. There is so much more than what I have written here.
Enjoy this episode and please share it out. It is being released on what is the final day of Athletic Trainer Appreciation Month. We appreciate Laurie and all of trainers out there who help our young athletes each and everyday.
