Recorded in the fall, Bronwen and Robyn sat down with Laurie Eisler, long time coach of the women's volleyball program at the University of Alberta. Laurie was gracious to spend a morning out of her busy schedule to talk about coaching women, coaching her own daughter, and being a female head coach in a male-dominated sports world.
