  • Babe Zaharias - The original "greatest of all time!"
    Nov 25 2022

    This is my most exciting woman with grit story yet! Now I know that title might ruffle some feathers, but Babe Zaharias was known for saying that to mess with her opponents.  It was always her goal to be the best athlete in the world.  In the 1930's, the idea of a woman accomplishing that seemed like a joke.  Listen to her story and see for yourself. I think you will be amazed at what you find.  The focus and grit this woman had is unlike any other in the sports world.  If she lived today, she'd be the biggest female sports star of all time, not to mention the richest.
