Ed Wozniakwicz has been an athletic trainer for just about 10 years. He is also a listener to the podcast and thought that his experiences would bring a unique insight into our ATChat 5 questions. In this episode we sit down and talk with Ed on what he has learned over the past 10 years and what information he would want to pass down to young professionals if he were able to go back and have the information he does now. This was a unique episode because the host, Joel, is at the same point in his career and the comparisons of what has been learned was unique. A lot of great insights in this episode and some good lessons learned to help young professionals and all ATCs continue to move forward in their career and the profession. www.athletictrainingchat.com  www.cliniallypressed.org SUBSCRIBE:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCc3WyCs2lmnKK6shrL5A4hw?sub_confirmation=1  #ATchat #ATC #atimpact #at4all #boc #bocatc #athletictraining #advocate #athletictrainingchat #health #medicine #medical #medicalprofession

The first time we talked with Shauna, she had a lot going on. She was in the middle of a PhD program while also runnign her online business at the time, MVMT Matters. In this follow up discussion, a lot has happened and Shauna was kind enough to share her story. Shauna’s PhD program didn’t go quite as expected and that is the story she shares. She goes into detail about the feelings of being left alone when she was struggling to figure out her next steps and how the support she thought she might have, just never came. We also discuss the process that Shauna went through to make the decision to no further pursue her PhD.

Dr. Phillip Vardiman has done and is doing a lot in the athletic training profession. I know Dr. Vardiman from my time in graduate school when he served as my advisor and we’ve been able to stay in touch ever since. Dr. Vardiman in this episode shares with us how he works to balance all the different apsects of AT he is involved in. Not only has he been full-time in an academic education program, he is doing research, service with the state and beyond and slo keeping up his clinical skils in a couple of areas.  We discuss the timportance of being involved in so much to keep current in as many areas as he can but at time it comes down to priorities and deciding what you can do at the highest levels and adjusting other aspects. In addition to this conversation, Dr. Varidman talks about his time working with USA Track & Field and everything he learned in those experiences.

Dr. Stamm is an athletic trainer, neuroscientist and concussion researcher. She recently wrote a book on how concussions and repetitive impacts can affect the brain of the developing of young children. This is obviously a big deal and it has become even more of a discussion with some of the high profile injuries that have occurred in the NFL. In this episode we talk about what has been happening with these injuries and a lot of the details around them and what it all means. We discuss the fencing response, second impact syndrome, and the ability for patients to make informed decisions after suffering a traumatic brain injury. Each of these topics is huge and could take an entire episode but we discuss the basics of each to create a baseline for discussion going forward and also highlight the importance of being conservative when managing these injuries. Please enjoy this conversation with Dr. Stamm. Book: The Brain on Youth Sports. (Link: https://amzn.to/3V4LEzb ) In this Episode: +The fencing response

Katie Lee is a doctoral student at Baylor University who is focusing her dissertation work on staff wellness, burnout, and caffeine consumption as it relates to a solution. In addition to this important conversation, we also discuss acrobatics, which Katie is working with while going through her program. Burnout is obviously a big topic in the athletic training profession, rightfully so. Katie helps define burnout and talks about some of the comparisons to other professions that can experience something similar. She notes how it can be a very vicious cycle that impacts both the athletic trainer but how it can also move into patient care. Katie also talks about best practices to help identify and address burnout before it hopefully gets too far. The discussion on acrobatics is also fascinating as a new sport. Katie defines what it is and how the athletic trainers who work with these athletes continue to work together to figure out best practices to care for this athlete population. A lot of great insight in

Racism is wrong. Hate can’t be accepted. Just not being “racist” is not enough to propel change. In order to help create change, we have to listen, work to comprehend and accept the fact that those in privileged positions can never understand what diverse people go through. ATChat hasn’t put a statement out because we needed to listen and learn from people that experience racism on potentially daily basis. We denounce any form or racism or hate, not only within the athletic training community but in the world in general. We will do more to help be part of the change that is needed to increase equality and work with our diverse professionals to succeed and feel safe while doing so. This roundtable discussion on Race in Athletic Training is a starting point and we can’t think Krystal, Ryan, Mercedes, Andrew, Brandon, Susan, Mike and Austin for being a part of the conversation and education. We held this roundtable to listen, learn, and find opportunities to try and make things better. #blacklivesmatter, ra

Advocating for the athletic training is as important now as it has ever been. There have been several avenues that people have worked through in order to get the word out about athletic training and what the profession can do.
