Behind the Athlete: Recent Episodes

This podcast aims to highlight top performing athletes and their passions outside of the sport they play. What we find is that these athletes value their time away from the court/field, and whatever they decide to explore can become an escape from the pressures and intensity of sport. In turn, it actually enhances their game. Listen to conversations led by professional volleyball player and singer/songwriter, Juliann Faucette Johnson, to discover who these athletes are outside of their sport. We want to know - who is Behind the Athlete?
