Hey Hi!

Are you a woman athlete that is working with sponsors and/ or ambassador programs? 

I see this a lot when athletes tag all of their sponsors in one post. It's ok to do this once in a while, but I am always searching for that one post where the athlete highlights their sponsor, and more often than not, I don't see anything highlights on their sponsors/ ambassadors.

Depending on your contracts with your sponsorships, it is important to put in the work to highlight their products and or services. Why do you like riding for them? What is your favourite product or service from your sponsor? Make it genuine, real and authentic and your supporters will be grateful for it.

I have an interview that is so moving, so powerful and will give you all the inspiration you need when it comes to your sports.
Let me introduce you to a babe who has proven herself and the world that she will not stop and nothing will slow her down.

Meet Michelle Salt. Michelle is a Canadian Paralympic snowboarder who was in a life-threatening morotcycle accident in 2011. She has had an incredible journey and to see her overcome so many hurdles has been huge.

The last couple of winter seasons Michelle has been sledding and has been loving the sport, however this sport has exposed more struggles than a lot of us would face.

Listen in as Michelle explains a little bit more about her struggles and pains along with her massive accomplishments and wins.

Michelle is one incredible, inspiring woman athlete and I can’t wait for you to listen more about her journey.

I sat down and interviewed Nadia Samar, a local babe to Whistler BC back on September 1st of 2020. Nadia is a babe with many many talents. If you googled her name, you would see that she is a professional in many extreme sports such as mountain biking, backcountry skiing, sledding and many more. We sat down to high light the activity and sport you and I breath, which is sledding.

Nadia talks about her wins and accomplishments when it comes to her sport but also the repercussions that come with sending it big, which results in injuries. But if it weren't for those injuries, Nadia wouldn't be where she is today, which is in Medical school down south in the United Sates. Listen in on what Nadia has to say and learn more about her story within her career of sledding.

Thank you so much for joining me here on our new podcast channel, Braap Babes Throttle Talk Tuesdays. I am your host, Angelisa Edwards. I have been doing instagram live's since July of 2020 on our instagram page BraapBabes_Official, interviewing women athletes that are snowmobile and dirt bike enthusiasts. The one thing that I love, is getting to know these woman athletes and learning more about their dedications to their crafts. I want to know more about their fails, their sacrifices and drills when it comes to their sports. Because this is what makes me appreciate woman athletes more. 

During these episodes we interview influential women, discuss products that work for us on our sleds, and dirt bikes, what gear we are rocking and other ins and outs of the industry. 

Thank you so much for being here, subscribing to our channel and we can't wait to provide you with more stories and fun filled times. Please check out our website, www.braapbabes.com and shoot us an email for any comments, suggestions and other news.
