The New Standard with Alysia Montaño

Alysia Montaño, an Olympic bronze medalist and founder of For All Mothers, joins Sarah to discuss the inspiration behind her nonprofit, how pregnancy has historically impacted endorsements and brand deals, and what it was like to break a non-disclosure agreement with Nike to shed light on how the company treated pregnant athletes. Plus, Alysia gives flowers to the organizations that have made the biggest strides in ensuring athletes in women’s sports have protections and support around pregnancy and childbirth.
