All stakeholders in sport need to read this recent research-informed work on transgender women athletes and elite sport. Science matter. And, so does treating every person/athlete/performer with dignity. We all perform at our best when we do. Awesome work @AthleteAlly !

[Athlete Ally @AthleteAlly]

Athlete Ally is proud to partner w/ @EthicsInSPORT & @inclusionplaybk to highlight key findings from @EallianceSport's Transgender Women Athletes & Elite Sport: A Scientific Review, published in Nov 2022.

Critics claiming that NCAA guidelines don’t level the playing field & ‘protect’ cis women reinforce (cis)sexist beliefs that are the real source of harm and injustice. Stop telling us what we are capable/incapable of. Field won’t be level until you do. https://t.co/pQVg1L1apx

2020 mantra. Awareness and agency —> the path to authenticity (and I’d add love, toward the self and others)

[Jill Kochanek, Phd (she/her) @bothandcoaching]

@andydriska @MSUCoachLead This is awesome! Great work, Becky!

[Jill Kochanek, Phd (she/her) @bothandcoaching]

You’ve left a remarkable legacy. You’ve helped our world think more critically, feel more deeply, and lead more earnestly with love. Thank you for teaching me that “love is as love does.” And that healing and transformation are grounded in a praxis of love.
