Flame Bearers: Pathways to Paris

Flame Bearers actively celebrates the current generation of women Olympians and Paralympians seeking to go to Tokyo. We have real conversations about what it means to be amongst the best female athletes in the world, and discuss the untold stories not caught on camera including the difficult daily tradeoffs and tensions many feel about their aging bodies, careers, and interests in having children to name a few but also the unheard positive stories about deeper connections and solidarity. Individuals whose voices are included in order of appearance: Jessica Long, Lea Davison, Eliza Stone, Leonard Roxon, Sanda Aldass, Becky Sauerbrunn, Naya Tapper, Ida Jacobsen, Deja Young, Nicky Nieves, and Katarina Roxon.
