Beyond the Sidelines: Women Reshaping Sports Journalism

Description

What happens when being different makes you a target — before it makes you respected? In this episode of BILF Pod, Kendra Douglas joins Mara for an honest conversation about identity, resilience, and staying in the room when the industry tests you. From navigating bias and representation in sports media to moments that quietly confirm you’re exactly where you belong, this is a grounded look at what it really takes to last. No outrage. No motivation talk. Just perspective earned over time. This episode isn’t about breaking through; it’s about not quitting before your moment arrives. 🎧 Listen if you’re building something that takes patience.
