We dive into the businesses, brands, efforts and extraordinary lives of NFL Women. YNS Live with NFL Thread PIVOT, a new show brought to you by YNS Live with NFL Thread recorded live on Fireside with hosts Juliet Hahn and Cynthia Zordich. They dive into new chapters, inviting NFL players and spouses to join them on Fireside to share their story of transition. Football is more than just a sport; it is a way of life. From the grittiness of practice and strategy sessions to the thrill of game days and the power of cheering crowds, football is the glue that holds a professional player's life together. But what happens when you have to face life after football? What happens when the clock runs out? The adjustment to life without football can be traumatic. Some players are prepared and make a seamless transition. Others struggle to make sense of a life that no longer seems to have meaning. Some of them think themselves forever young, forever able to tackle and block and run, not only indestructible but immortal. What they all have in common is that one day they will be separated from the game, and when that happens - they may or may not be ready for it. Likely, the latter.

YNS Live with NFL Thread PIVOT Paul Frase and Alison Rockett Listen to a new episode of YNS Live with recorded live on with hosts Juliet Hahn and Cynthia Zordich featuring special guests Paul Frase and Alison Rockett. Paul Frase and Alison Rockett had everything—Paul was an NFL defensive lineman; Alison was an assistant manager for Guns N’ Roses and a personal assistant to fashion design mogul Max Azria, founder of BCBG. Their first child, Joshua, was born with a muscular disorder called myotubular myopathy (MTM). The doctors would not give him more than 24 hours to live. Alison became Joshua’s advocate, and eventually the patient advocate for a whole community. Alison taught herself how to keep her son alive and had to resuscitate him numerous times. Before Joshua had his first birthday, Alison and her husband, Paul, started a foundation that would one day find the cure for their son’s disease. Knowing nothing about scientific research for a rare orphan disease, Alison educated herself and trusted her instincts, and when she received a vision of handing a large check to a renowned researcher, she chased that vision with relentless passion until its fruition. Alison has since been published in Human Gene Therapy and was featured in the MIT Technology Review. Alison has forged relationships with MDA, NIH, NORD and Global Genes during the Joshua Frase Foundation’s quest for a cure for MTM. Paul and the family were featured in USA Today during the week of Super Bowl 32, when he was a member of the Green Bay Packers squad. You can find more on their . Remarkable Quotes “I am the woman I am because my son lived, and I mean that wholeheartedly. If God gave me the choice today not to have lived that journey or to do it again, I would do it again, because truly, the joy outweighed the pain.” “This book is Joshua's story. It’s a story about inspiration and hope and love. That's what Joshua is. A lot of people couldn't put the book down. They read it in one sitting.” Sponsor The YNS Live With NFL Thread Super Bowl Experience is sponsored by Shutterstock Editorial. Wherever you go - is there to capture it!

YNS Live with NFL Thread Queen V 10/01/2023

YNS Live with NFL Thread Queen V Listen to a new episode of YNS Live with NFL Thread, recorded live on with hosts Juliet Hahn and Cynthia Zordich featuring special guest Queen V. Queen V is a New York City based singer-songwriter and the front woman of her namesake rock band. V is currently performing and releasing videos in support of her most recent record, Bridges Vol. 3, which is the conclusion of her Bridges trilogy. The trilogy began with the release of the Bridges EP in 2015, which V recorded in Los Angeles at the famed Studio 606 with the help of Producer John “Lou” Lousteau. This first EP was the result of V taking her songwriting in a new direction, refocusing on her roots on piano and acoustic guitar. The next leg of the Bridges journey saw Queen V spending extended periods of time writing in Nashville, where she linked up with Chad Carlson, who has become a frequent collaborator, cowriter, and Producer. The 2017 EP, Bridges Vol. 2, was recorded at Nashville’s Sound Emporium, with Chad Carlson at the helm. For the closing saga of the trilogy, the full-length album Bridges Vol. 3, V knew she needed to bring the journey back home to New York City. V’s history in New York goes back over two decades, making a name for herself in her early days with frequent shows at legendary venues in NYC’s club scene, such as CBGB, The Bitter End, and Don Hill’s, among countless others. With the decision made that only New York had the energy, history, and other intangibles needed to close out this anthology, V headed to the historic Sear Sound to record Bridges Vol. 3. Once again Chad Carlson would be behind the board producing the record, along with co-writing a number of songs. Bridges Vol. 3 was released on June 10th of 2022, and has been supported by the release of a number of music videos, including V’s first ever animated video for the track “Technicolor.” V celebrated Vol. 3 with a concert at The Atlantic in Brooklyn, NY on the eve of the album’s release. Later that Summer, V would go on to promote the album by performing at Celebrity Care Fest, where she played two sets of her own music and sat in for performances with The Temptations, Lou Gramm of Foreigner, and The Jacksons. This continued a long history of high-profile collaborations for V who has written or performed with the likes of Vernon Reid (Living Colour), Corey Taylor (Slipknot/Stone Sour), Tom Morello (Rage Against The Machine), Lemmy (Motorhead), and more recently country star (no comma) Billy Dean, who cowrote Vol. 3’s, “Honest,” to name just a few. This year has seen Queen V perform “The Star-Spangled Banner” at Chicago’s Guaranteed Rate Field before the White Sox took on the Yankees, and also at her first Summer Soiree, which took place June 23rd at Rockwood Music Hall in New York City. The Summer Soiree was an addition to V’s series of regular NYC performances, which also includes her Spring Fling and Fall Ball. Additionally, she has plans to film and release videos for several more songs from Bridges Vol. 3, most recently the video for “Write Your Song,” which was filmed on location at Ellis Island as well as at the National Opera Center. Earlier this Summer, V released a limited-edition splatter vinyl version of Bridges Vol. 3 marking the first time any of the Queen V catalog has been released on vinyl.

I went from a solid paycheck to making 8 bucks an hour as a ranch hand living out of a camper. It’s a reintroduction when you get stripped down. You are forced to know another side of you.” “You can find a new passion but you’re always going to want to play the game. I still wake up and want to be playing. I still have dreams that the phone is ringing and I’m picked up and on a team. I don’t think that’s ever going to leave. But I don’t think that’s a bad thing, you know. Because you got that call before. You know that feeling. It was a part of your life that doesn’t exist anymore but it is still a part of who you are.” “As players, we go through self-doubt and misery. It’s easy to question yourself and get down on yourself. Truth is - you have to because it’s the only way out of it. Don’t be afraid to be down in the dumps. You’re allowed to feel that.“ “It is interesting to wake up to the fact that you have to discover something. But to discover- you have to do something. You have to give yourself purpose day in and day out to climb out of that hole you put yourself in.“ “What people don’t realize is the mindset of the game and what a player is conditioned to. You go from the locker room where you’re around like-minded guys that feel the same way about the team, about pain, about wins and losses. That mentality is not here in the real world. So, in a lot of the interviews I had, I found I had nothing in common. I felt like an alien. They just didn’t see the way I did or think the way I was conditioned to think. That was my biggest struggle.“ “Going through it was a wild ride for me. I couldn’t handle it so I escaped and went a little crazy. It took a while to realize that this wasn’t me but just me going through something. And you're really going through it.“ “You question: Who? Why? What’s going on up there? Where did you go? I was blindsided by this thing. You go to a dark place. I guess it’s depression but it’s a lot of anger, too. I totally disappears from myself and just went a little crazy. Football was the one thing I wanted to do. It’s all I ever thought about doing.“ “I never thought about what I was going to do after football. When guys came to the locker room to talk about it - I was not thinking about that. It was always football for me. If I’m not thinking about that - I’m not thinking about the game. Where’s that energy going?“ Sponsor The YNS Live With NFL Thread Super Bowl Experience is sponsored by Shutterstock Editorial. Wherever you go - is there to capture it!

Follow Kurt on . Remarkable Quotes “I admire my dad for his willingness to talk about his cancer. It takes a lot of courage and strength to actually be vulnerable, to talk about some of our real issues. I mean, there's a reason why the suicide rates of men are seventy-five percent more likely to commit. “I believe we internalize issues as men because we have ‘masculinity.’ Well, what is that?” “I learned to mix vulnerability with strength from my father, and I continue to lean on him and his mantra, which is, ‘Have a bad day tomorrow.’” “Through all the chemo treatments he had to go through - it was, ‘Have a bad day tomorrow. Have a bad moment. Don't have a bad day.’” “Take these gems throughout life that people are giving you and hold on to them because you’re going to go through things in life and these lessons are invaluable.” “I realize that I have a lot of life to live, and I'm going to go through things. And when I do go through things, I'm gonna lean on the experiences of others - that I love - to help me get through.” Sponsor The YNS Live With NFL Thread Super Bowl Experience is sponsored by Shutterstock Editorial.

The NFL is a circle and there is no end to it. There are so many phases - your rookie season, veteran years, transitioning out and life after the game. As you experience each - I promise you - you will find a friend or mentor in Off The Field that will help you along the way. That’s what we do.” “The whole purpose of the fashion show is about community. It is to impact community. To find those non-profits, charities and initiatives that are important to that community and leave our mark. Like we did with the HollyRod Foundation in Santa Monica - raising over 75K for Parkinson’s Disease and Autism. We have an entire committee devoted to choosing who we impact. We’re already out there in Arizona finding those charities. So, when Off The Field leaves Super Bowl LVII - we will again leave our mark. We will again showcase what it looks and feels like when you do for others. To quote Karen Lott, “there’s a lot of beautiful depth in the NFL,” and that comes from a service heart. I love that.

Remarkable Quotes “If I could offer advice to rookie girlfriends coming straight out of college - it would be to value women you meet along the way, because we all get it! Early on, you truly realize the value of the friendships and connections, above all.” “Wyatt is not on social media - but I’m all over it. I engage a lot with Browns fans and just love the back and forth and getting to know Browns fans from all over. Last year, I put out a tweet and said, ‘Hey guys, I would love to send out Christmas Cards - DM your address if you want one.’ I sent out over 1000 cards! It felt so good and I still have people yell out, ‘Thank you for the Christmas Card!’” “Wyatt is known for his Pancake Blocks and this year we teamed up with Elk and Elk to create the Block Hunger Campaign in support of St. Augustine Hunger Center. Every game Wyatt makes a Pancake Block - Elk and Elk will donate $770! Plus $77 for every point scored. I’m so grateful that we are in a place in Wyatt’s career where we can impact our community and give back. We are also planning a Thanksgiving event around the campaign.” Sponsor The YNS Live With NFL Thread Super Bowl Experience is sponsored by Shutterstock Editorial.

Ashley always held a passion for makeup and the beauty industry.

Ashley strives to break the stigma of the beauty industry as she believes the only standard of beauty is your own.

The organization she recently founded alongside her husband, the A&A Peterson Family Foundation, is focused on initiatives to transform the lives of those who lack economic and educational resources. The A&A Peterson Family Foundation was founded on the belief of encouraging and empowering individuals and families to work together to make a difference in our communities. They would like to help eradicate poverty by working to create and develop greater opportunities for under-served individuals, especially children. Their foundation aspires to help develop the resources needed to empower our communities and make a true impact. Download the Fireside App today and follow YNS Live with NFL Thread and PIVOT.

Remarkable Quotes “There are ebbs and flows in life always and you have to realize that there are some things you have to let roll off your shoulders. There are other things you cannot control. I had to learn; you know what? It’s okay to fail - because how do you succeed if you don’t? Everyone who has succeeded has failed at some point or another. The difference is they got back up and tried again.” Ashley Peterson on overcoming fear of failure and launching Elizabella Cosmetics “Number one - it helped my confidence. It helped me rediscover my identity. It helped me - in that moment - get out of the depression I was in. I love my husband and my kids, but I had lost myself for a moment. My identity was in being something else to others and for others - wife, personal assistant, NFL spouse, mom. Elizabella was just for me. It was something I needed to do for me and no other reason other than it made me happy. After we launched, I knew this was the path I needed to be on. It was life changing.” Ashley Peterson, Founder, CEO of Elizabella Cosmetics Sponsor The YNS Live With NFL Thread Super Bowl Experience is sponsored by Shutterstock Editorial.

After 7 years in the league Ian transitioned out of football and spent 2 years finishing an engineering degree, followed by 5 years in the corporate world as an Industrial Engineer, but then transitioned again into his 3rd career - coaching football.

Remarkable Quotes “I was like - what am I going to do now? At 28 they told me I was too old to play football and I had to figure out what was next. You always think you have an idea of when it’s coming and you hope that you have a chance to prepare, but even know that it’s not for long, you still hope that you’re ready and you know what life is like. It wasn’t until I was done that I realized how much of my identity was tied up with being a professional football player. That was gone and it was completely out of my control which is difficult for me because I am accustomed to being in control.” - Former NFL Player/Current NFL Coach Ian Scott on transition.
