On this episode of The Human Athlete, we sit down with Julie Raeder, a former standout multi-sport athlete from Oostburg, Wisconsin. Julie helped lead her high school to multiple state appearances before becoming the all-time leading scorer at Cardinal Stritch University. But her story doesn't end with on-court accomplishments. Julie shares her journey through the challenges and triumphs of high school and collegiate sports, the bittersweet transition away from athletics, the search for purpose and community after the final game, and how she’s found new meaning through teaching, coaching, her faith, and building a career in technology. Whether you’re an athlete, coach, or anyone facing life’s transitions, Julie’s insights on resilience, identity, and the ongoing pursuit of excellence will resonate and inspire.
