Feisty Fridays: Pushing Boundaries in Sports and Society


Listen Later

Feisty Fridays are 5-10 minute mini-episodes released on alternating weeks when full episodes are not available. These bite-sized episodes deliver bold, empowering conversations on topics that matter to women everywhere.

In this first Feisty Friday, we’re diving into:
- Katherine Switzer’s groundbreaking fight for equality in sports.
- The outdated narratives about women’s roles in athletics and society.
- The double standards around fertility in sports—and how extreme exercise impacts men too.
- Why celebrating women’s achievements is more important than societal scrutiny.
- The need for a more inclusive conversation around women’s health.

Being a woman is about so much more than meeting expectations—it’s about breaking barriers, embracing choices, and thriving unapologetically.
