Join Kim Stone, the first official CEO of the Washington Spirit, and Dr. Christopher Walsh, a board certified internist at VHC Health Primary Care – Shirlington, as they discuss women’s health, wellness and performance at the highest levels across business and sports.


Plus, Stone, a recent honoree of the WBJ Women Who Mean Business, shares the main reason she chose to help lead the region’s professional women’s soccer team (hint: it started with Owner Michelle Kang). 


Listen to this episode to learn more about:

• Stone’s decades of sports leadership, including her years with the NBA’s Miami Heat, and what she learned from often being the only woman in the room 
• What it’s like to lead one of the most exciting teams as women’s sports gain fandom
• The club’s comprehensive approach to women’s health care, including technology, sports psychology and nutrition 
• Getting fired up to support the team that made last year’s NWSL finals and continues to set attendance records
• The role strength training, mobility and recovery play in preventing injuries whether you’re an athlete or an active professional
• Simple habits for “thinking like an athlete” when it comes to your own health
