Interview with Pam Kosanke—Elite Athlete, Former USA Rugby Player, and Disruptive Entrepreneur What You Should've Been Taught

    • Self-Improvement

Pam Kosanke and I have known each other for years from our time spent reporting to the Olympic Training Center, globetrotting, and playing on the USA Rugby team together.

Pam is an elite athlete across multiple sports, former USA rugby player, entrepreneur, and the founder of Sport Bigs (SportBigs.com), which is both a toy company and a movement!

In this interview, we explore her experience as a multi-sport Team USA athlete (softball, rugby, and aquabike) and what it takes to compete in six (yes 6!) World Championships.

We explore her lessons learned as a female entrepreneur and dig into the reasons why she was inspired to launch her company, Sport Bigs. Pam launched Sport Bigs in 2021 to be the world’s first plush toy product focused on promoting women athletes and athletics. Using the likenesses and voices of elite women athletes, Sport Bigs meets the unmet need for female-centric sports toys, with a larger mission of helping women’s sports achieve the exposure, respect and sponsorship dollars they deserve.

With the launch of this disruptive company, Pam has created an entirely new toy category and is changing the entrenched world of sports broadcasting and sponsorship as we know it.

Of course, we also explore what it means to be an EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System) Coach and how Pam has risen to be EOS's Head of Marketing. At its core, EOS is a business operating system that helps entrepreneurs get what they want from their business.

Finally, we discuss tactical ways that we can all be better advocates for women's sports and how we can make sports environments more inclusive.

Whether you identify as an athlete, business owner, entrepreneur, or simply someone who wants to "Be a Champion," this is an episode that you won't want to miss. Enjoy!
