Lexi Rodriguez and the Specter of Self-Doubt

About this episode

Lexi Rodriguez discusses her journey with self-doubt and her growth as a professional volleyball player.

“The Taylor Swift of Volleyball,” Lexi Rodriguez joins Khat and Madi. Lexi opens up about the self-doubt she experienced early in her time at Nebraska and again at the beginning of her LOVB career. As a pro, she’s found a better balance – including co-authoring a book and launching an app – and has enjoyed the opportunity to learn and adapt to the faster, more physical game.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
