"Everybody has their own version of success and wouldn't it be cooler if we were just telling those stories, rather than holding it up against some arbitrary marker" - Alice Soper, Advocate, Sports Writer & Community Commentator.
Alice is always, always going to light a fire within me everytime we speak. This episode is no different, and it is a gift to share it with you today!!
During our kōrero, we start with discussing Alice's journey in advocating for women's sports, reflecting on her personal growth as a freelancer and the intersection of politics and sports. My favourite parts are when we dive into the complexities of storytelling and the innovations needed in sports broadcasting to enhance viewer engagement, increase media representation, and the role of social media in activism and shaping narratives.
My write-up of this episode truly cannot do it justice, just tune in and let me (or Alice) know your thoughts on our many, many topics!
