My goal is to figure out the tips and tricks of professional football players and also to give you a glimpse into their personal and professional lives. In this episode, I talk to Kate Pettersen (@KatePettersen_). In my interview with Kate, I took my podcast to a totally different dimension. In other interviews I’ve got the player’s perspective, the coach’s perspective and now for the first time the sideline’s perspective through Kate. Kate is currently the host reporter and digital content producer for TSN & the Toronto Argonauts. There she does some pretty amazing things that some people could only dream of, like creating secret handshakes with star Toronto Blue Jays or riding in Lamborghinis with the Toronto Argonauts. She also has her own blog were she shares her life stories. In our interview, Kate openly shares about the struggles of losing her parents and what she’s learnt, how to be more disciplined in your everyday life and even how young lads like me can get the cute girls. But without further ado, I hope you enjoy.
