In this episode, Cara and Carli open up about what it really means to build a diverse and dynamic team at BACE. They discuss how diversity goes far beyond appearances: it’s about bringing together people with different stories, perspectives, and strengths to create an environment where everyone feels seen and valued. Through their candid conversation, they share how inclusivity fuels creativity, connection, and community, both within the team and among the athletes who show up every day.

Join Cara and Carli as they talk about nothing but also the most important topics out there.

Tune in as Cara and Carli dive into a conversation about the heart of BACE: the athletes who show up day after day and bring the energy, commitment, and community that make the space what it is. They share stories about the people who inspire them, the moments that have shaped BACE, and why showing up matters more than perfection. Of course, in true Cara and Carli fashion, the conversation takes plenty of hilarious detours as they once again prove they’re completely incapable of keeping things serious for long. It’s an episode full of gratitude, laughter, and a reminder of why the BACE community is unlike any other.
