Believing you’ll come back stronger, even on the hard days.
Showing up for rehab, session after session, until you’re back in the game.
Doing the work when no one’s watching, and staying in control when it gets tough.
As the first female assistant coach in Raptors history, Brittni Donaldson has smashed glass ceilings and broken barriers in the sports world.
The years leading up to her success were far from easy, however. Faced with devastating injuries and roadblocks thrown her way, her drive to keep going was fuelled by her love of basketball, the love and support of the people around her, and her ‘never give up attitude’.
Donaldson shared how these gruelling experiences in turn shaped her character, developed her resilience and taught her life lessons. She also shared the unique perspectives gained while injured, and how being sidelined allowed her to experience the game from a coach’s perspective.
