In the second part of our conversation, we talk about what Krishna is doing now and the lasting impact she is making. After an impressive career as a thrower and coach, she found women’s tackle football and made her way to the U.S. national team. She represented our country on the biggest stage, won a gold medal at the World Championships, and then shifted into leadership as the general manager of the Kansas City Glory. Krishna explains the unique challenges of building women’s sports, from managing operations to supporting athletes, and how her role is about more than wins and losses. It is about creating opportunities and a foundation for future generations.
What inspires me most is how she continues to use her voice and experience to help others. Through public speaking, youth coaching, and mentoring, Krishna is showing athletes and professionals the importance of setting goals, living by your values, and approaching challenges with a growth mindset. Her story proves that the lessons you learn in sport prepare you for every arena in life. This part of the conversation is about leadership, vision, and the responsibility we all have to invest in the people coming after us.
