Shownotes

In this episode of the AT Last Podcast, we hear from Sierra Cruz, an Athletic Training Student, whose journey reflects both the challenges and triumphs of underrepresentation in healthcare. Sierra shares her experiences navigating professional spaces where diversity is limited, and how resilience, mentorship from AT Last, and advocacy helped her carve out her path.

The conversation highlights the importance of creating inclusive environments in sports medicine, where the voices and contributions of women and people of color are valued and celebrated. Sierra’s perspective offers powerful lessons on perseverance, the role of community, and the need for structural change to ensure equity in the profession.

Her story is both deeply personal and widely relatable, a reminder that breaking barriers often starts with the courage to keep showing up.
