About this episode
Legendary coach and player Dawn Staley joins Sarah Spain for a candid conversation about leading in life, beyond just wins and losses. Staley, whose Hall of Fame career has shaped generations of athletes, discusses the pressure of coaching in the new NIL and House v. NCAA era, her advocacy for equity in women’s athletics, and the emotional strength required to support friends and family through health challenges — including breast cancer. Dawn and Sarah explore how true and lasting influence lives beyond the scoreboard, and beyond the arena.
