The topic will be presented by Tracey Bilsky, sports psychologist to the Yukon Ski Team since 2002 and facilitated by the amazing Fast and Female Ambassadors, Yukon’s own Emily Nishikawa and Dahria Beatty.  They will be joined by other phenomenal women leaders from both the Yukon and the National Ski team.
