How do you win at both life and motherhood? Olympic gold medalist, entrepreneur, and MommiNation co-founder Sanya Richards-Ross has plenty of wisdom to share on this topic and more.
Sanya sits down with host Lalaina Rabary to explore her journey, from being crowned Olympic Champion in the 400m at the 2012 London Games to becoming one of the most decorated female track and field Olympians in history. She also opens up about her life beyond the track: her transition into motherhood, building a supportive community for Black moms, and navigating challenges with resilience and grace.
Sanya co-founded MommiNation to address a critical gap many moms face - the lack of a village to lean on during motherhood’s toughest moments. Through this platform, she aims to empower, connect, and uplift mothers, offering the kind of support she found invaluable on her own journey.
In this special live episode, Sanya shares practical tips on balancing motherhood and personal goals, how sports prepared her for life’s toughest transitions, and why giving yourself grace is key to thriving as a mom.
