In this Playbook: The Non-Linear Path Is Still a Path: Bree took time away from the field to raise her son. She came back. She's still in the game — studying for her CSCS, training youth and overseas basketball athletes, building her network one real conversation at a time. Internships Will Expose You — Let Them: Unpaid. Long hours. Early mornings and late nights. Bree is clear-eyed about what internships are for: not just building a resume, but finding out if you actually love it. Be So Good They Can't Ignore You: Bree has been told her looks are a distraction. She's had to wonder if opportunities came to her for the wrong reasons. She's been steered towards recruiting instead of the weight room. TeamBuildr ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠: Coaches, revolutionise your training programs with their cutting-edge platform.
