I found this podcast completely on accident and loved it from the first episode I listened to. I absolutely love the diversity of the women interviewed and that it’s not your typical “popular” sports only. Even more - I love the focus on the Paralympians. My biggest complaint - the episodes are …
Love this podcast but since we are featuring women in sports then the guests need to emphasize what women are doing for social change.

Thank you for this shining beacon o…
Very well done. You are able to truly feel what the athletes have been through to get to this point. Even if you are not into sports their stories are very inspirational.

Wow. This podcast does an incredible job interviewing inspiring, diverse athletes and weaving the interviews into an educational and motivational podcast with supplemental interviews from experts. I’m hooked and can’t wait for more episodes!
One of the Muppets said, “The year 2020 - brought to you by the letters W, T, and F.” The women interviewed trained hard, dealt with challenges and disappointments, and their resilience and positivity comes through in these thoughtful interviews. The interviewer skillfully weaves in comments from …
