JACKIE DANIELS Special Guest! 181 - Longevity in Roller Derby

This week, I welcome one of my favorite people and long time heroes in roller derby to the podcast -- Jackie Daniels! During this Jackie-Jackie connection, you'll hear all about her trail blazing career of 20+ years (so far ;-) ) in our sport. Being part of history at the beginning of the WFTDA in one of the first 30 leagues, Grand Raggidy, and what it was like in that 2005-2010 time period when so much was growing and changing. Then through the golden years of skating at Champs with Windy City and Texas, skating for USA in two World Cups, to now being a member of Rockin City in Round Rock, Texas. What does it take to keep a body and mind engaged to keep playing this sport at such a high level for over two decades? Jackie Daniels' attitude of always wanting to grow, progress, and be coached is inspiring and her example of mindful self care and working smarter is something we can all learn from.Follow Jackie Daniels on IG @jackiedaniels07_jdIf interested in coaching, email [email protected] by ⁠Meagen Kopacki - Photographer⁠Podcast logo by Liz Mac IntyreConcussion Roller Derby is hosting MRDA Champs in Salem Oregon on October 10-12th.
