On today’s episode, I’m talking to Athletic Trainer Andrea Kovalsky about sticking to your values. 

Andrea is the Head Athletic Trainer for Granite City High School in Granite City, Illinois. She’s currently working towards her Doctorate in Athletic Training while also serving on the Illinois Athletic Trainers Association. In each role she’s taken on, Andrea has given herself a few years to fully learn the job and what it requires. She assesses if it fits her values and her goals, and chooses to move on if it’s not the exact right fit. With each move, Andrea has taken lessons learned along with her, confident she won’t make the same mistakes over again. 

We talk about:

• Learning to be selfish, especially in a role that usually works behind the scenes.
• Finding outlets for our true passions, like mentoring, within our current careers.
• Shuffling priorities through different opportunities and career stages.
