I love Flamebearers! It is honest, educational and so incredibly inspiring. I am not an athlete but the themes Jamie talks to her guests about, being present, living in you body, self care and the importance of determination and grit are such important lessons for everyone. Thank you for the amazing work you are doing!
Great pod, really enjoyed the episode on Sue Bird. Multi layered storytelling on female athletes/para athletes
I really appreciate the global nature of this podcast. For example, it was really cool to listen to the episode on the athlete from Madagascar and then check out an athlete from Brazil and Iran. Friend recommended me this podcast and I love it. I’ve been listening to it non stop definitely a good one!!
Honestly I listen to a lot of podcasts, but this is the best one out there! As a guy, it's cool for me to listen to stories of female athletes. I hope more guys check this podcast out. This podcast IS AMAZING. Keep up the good work !!
