Evanka Osmak - Grief Changed Me
from The Lesley Hawkins Podcast · host Lesley Hawkins
With a degree in civil engineering, she was set for a future of stability and success, and yet her passion lay elsewhere. So she returned to school to learn the world of sports broadcasting, and has since become a leader in the space, appearing every evening as co-host of Sportsnet Central. After years of covering hockey, she made an unexpected move at 41: lacing up her own hockey skates, joining a women’s league, and discovering a completely different relationship with the sport she’d covered for years. At the same time, her world shifted in a far more profound and devastating way, as she lost her mother to ALS. Now, in her upcoming book, When the Game Changes, she reflects on reinvention, grief, and gaining a new perspective.#pivotalmoment #sportsbroadcast #ALSSend us Fan MailLesley Hawkins is a keynote speaker, leadership strategist, and storyteller who believes growth happens in the everyday moments that define who we become.
