EPISODE 8 • SEASON 5 00:48:50
In this episode, I chat with Ainka Jess - a trailblazer, changemaker, and powerhouse in sports media. As the founder of She’s4Sports Media, an award-winning entrepreneur, and a seasoned communications leader, Ainka has spent nearly two decades amplifying voices and challenging the status quo across organizations like CBC, PwC, BMO, and the University of Toronto.
During our conversation we dive deep into her journey, unpacking pivotal moments of adversity, her evolving mindset on failure, and the persistent barriers women face in sports. Ainka also shares her candid take on the WNBA’s visibility, the gender pay gap, and the exciting arrival of the Toronto Tempo.
