In this episode, we sit down with the unstoppable Tamara Taylor, aka TT2STRONG, a 6-year WFA veteran, two-time All-American, and championship ring holder who plays for the Cali War.

In an industry where women in sports are often overlooked, underestimated, or expected to conform, this show exists to disrupt the narrative. No Permission Needed is a platform dedicated to elevating the voices of women athletes, executives, creators, and leaders who refuse to shrink themselves to fit into spaces that were never designed for them. In this episode, Brandee shares the origin of the movement and why this podcast is more than content — it’s culture shift. “We don’t need permission from anyone to be great.” This series is rooted in authenticity over approval.

Throughout the season, you’ll hear from sportscasters, operations leaders, athletes, founders, and women building power behind the scenes. We’ll talk about how they got into the industry, what they’ve faced, and how we collectively support each other while rewriting the rules. Because this isn’t about fitting in. It’s about building something better. Follow and subscribe on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube. Join the movement on Instagram and be part of a growing community of women who are done asking. This is the era of ownership. This is No Permission Needed.
