I recently gave a TEDx talk, The Power of Equity in Sport. It was a humbling experience- partly because of the preparation for TED approval, and partly because I felt vulnerable delivering a message I feel so passionate about. https://t.co/WivjxWhLKQ via @YouTube

So proud of Matteo for the courage to share his painful story to inspire others to ask for help and his mission to stop the stigma. Proud of you Mark and @LEspo11 and Sophia for all your love and support. Family is everything. ❤️❤️ #InvisibleChallenge
My brother Matteo wrote a letter to his younger self. I think it’s a very powerful piece. It was gutwrenching reliving these memories but he is doing his part to end the stigma and start the conversation about mental health. I hope you take the time to read his story (link below)

Today we shine a light on the greatness of the players, pay tribute to their sacrifice, and commitment to the next generation. We are experiencing a watershed moment for women in hockey and I couldn’t be more proud of our @BauerHockey team’s contribution to making it a reality.
Nothing great ever comes easy. To those who fought like hell to make @thePWHLofficial dream a reality, thank you for giving greatness a new sheet of ice to shine on. #EverythingForTheGirls #EverythingForTheGame

This video is the absolute best! Check it out with 🔉 Love the love of these powerful little girls 💪 👏🔥 #EverythingForTheGirls
These messages from two 8 year olds are remarkable and are things some adults dont even get!! We thought it was important to share this as these are things that young girls should be hearing from other girls in the women’s hockey community.

I am grateful for family in the audience to support me: my Dad, I looked at him at one point and caught him wiping a tear. I will remember that for a long time, my brother Paul, a great supporter, and to my daughter Sophia who inspires me everyday to fight for equity. 🙏 ❤️

An incredible reminder from an outstanding leader- always take the high road and stay true to who you are. @MichelleObama is so deserving of this award.
Michelle Obama was named one of USA TODAY’s “Women of the Year,” a recognition of women who have made a significant impact in their communities and across the country. When told about the honor, Michelle Obama was asked if she had a guiding mantra. Her answer wasn’t surprising

Now is the time for brands to step up and support the @thepwhlofficial Visibility through broadcasting deals and marketing provides an opportunity to watch women play and get to know them off the ice to make a deeper connection, which in turn inspires loyalty and greater fandom.
