Carl Lewis, Shannon Boxx, Sylvia Fowles: Centering the Athlete

What does it truly mean to put the athlete first?

In this episode, host Karina LeBlanc sits down with three legends: Olympic track and field icon Carl Lewis, World Cup champion and Olympic gold medalist Shannon Boxx, and basketball Hall of Famer Sylvia Fowles.

Recorded live at The Epicenter: Women’s Global Sports Summit at Nike World Headquarters, the conversation explores resilience, redefining success, and the systems athletes need to thrive. Between them, the panelists hold 16 Olympic medals — and they get candid about overcoming setbacks, shaping the next generation, and building athlete-centered cultures that extend far beyond sport.
