In this episode, I have the pleasure of speaking with Aime Card, the editor and author of "The Tigerbelles: Olympic Legends from Tennessee State." Aime's work is nothing short of remarkable, as she undertakes the significant challenge of chronicling the journeys of extraordinary female athletes. These women not only excelled in their sport but also overcame obstacles and challenges along their paths.
During our conversation, Aime shared a pivotal mindset shift that was instrumental in her ability to engage in self-promotion and successfully market her book. She unveils her "secret sauce" for approaching each day with confidence, shedding light on how she managed to push past limiting beliefs and not give in to intimidation.
Aime also reveals an intriguing part of her journey—the initial attempt to pitch the book idea to a male colleague, hoping he would write it, and the response she received. This moment, among others, is a testament to her resilience and determination.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the power of perseverance, the art of storytelling, and the impact of championing underrepresented voices in sports history. Join us to discover the inspiring story behind The Tigerbelles: Olympic Legends from Tennessee State.
