Within EUSA Insider format, we are presenting the "Winn'Her, Mind Over Matter," an individual project, by Milia Molinié, ESC Volunteer from France. 

This project is an interview series that delves into mental health among female athletes, sharing inspiring stories and powerful portraits.

For this second episode, Milia had the honor of interviewing Canadian ex professional volleyball player Lucy Charuk, who is now a coach.

After 13 years as a professional player, including with the national team, Lucy played for clubs in various countries, adapting to different cultures and volleyball styles. Now a coach, she shares in this interview how her journey has shaped her coaching approach, with a strong emphasis on open communication between coach and player.

Sit back, relax, and enjoy the interview. Happy listening!
