Paul's Positive Podcast
Hosted by Amy Iverson
In this uplifting segment from Paul's Positive Podcast, hosted by Amy Iverson, we hear about the inspiring collaboration between WNBA star A'ja Wilson, Nike, and Rebel Girls.
Together, they've launched a book titled "A’ja Wilson: The Best is Yet to Come," designed to empower young girls in sports. With studies indicating that girls are twice as likely to quit sports by age 14, A'ja's book shares her personal insights and athletic journey as a source of motivation and resilience.
The initiative is further enriched by the foreword from A'ja's former coach, Dawn Staley, and is complemented by a range of multimedia content from Rebel Girls, featuring inspirational athletes like Sabrina Ionescu. These efforts aim to provide continuous encouragement and a positive mindset, while practical exercises help young athletes visualize their sports journey as an evolving path rather than an endpoint.
Remarkably, this empowering resource is freely accessible, ensuring that A'ja's wisdom reaches everyone, making a real-world positive impact. This segment celebrates the power of one voice to inspire global change, reminding us all that, indeed, the best is yet to come.
