Girl, Take the Lead!
188. Legacy of Courage: Celebrating Fearless Women of the 2024 Olympics
29 Aug 2024
We’ve been covering stories about fearless leadership for August and this is our final episode. I know you probably all followed the Olympics in Paris this year and heard a lot about the women who stood out with amazing stories like Katie, Simone, Sha'Carri , but I’m thinking there’s some other stories you may not have heard about and that’s my hope for today. I hope you hear something new and feel inspired learning about these fearless women, moms, and soon-to-be moms. Athletes Covered: Yaylagul Ramazanova Nada Hafez Zhiying Zeng Charley Davidson Allyson Felix Card Match to Episode: “Cheers, You Made It Look So Easy” https://girltaketheleadpod.com/shop#!/cheers/p/674843008/category=0 Here are three takeaways from the episode: 1. The 2024 Olympics demonstrated gender parity. 2. The original spirit of the Olympics was alive and well as athletes showed their passion and care for each other. 3. Being a mother doesn’t need to mean career death as an athlete!
