In this powerful episode of The MotUS Edge Podcast, Stacy and Casey sit down with Joey Gamper Cuthbert, author of Squad Safe, to talk about creating real change in the culture of cheerleading. From moving past performance-at-all-costs mindsets to fostering environments where athlete wellbeing, transparency, and mental health come first, Joey shares practical strategies that empower coaches and uplift entire programs. We explore what safeguarding really looks like in action, how to support athletes without overstepping as a coach, and why investing in coach development is key to retention and success. As always, we sprinkle in some dad jokes and dig into our weekly inspiration quote—don't miss this one!
