How Stephanie Grady's Influential Athlete is Revolutionizing High School Sports
Description
In this interview, Steve and Adam talk with Stephanie Grady, a former Fox news anchor turned entrepreneur who co-founded Influential Athlete, a company helping high school athletes navigate Name, Image, Likeness or NIL opportunities through coaching and education rather than traditional sports agency services.
The conversation explores both her professional transition and her personal journey from competitive figure skating to broadcasting, with humorous moments including a co-anchor literally diving behind the desk during a live broadcast and her observations about Midwest culture, particularly how Wisconsin is "too nice to have four-way stop signs."
The episode also captures the changing landscape of high school athletics in Wisconsin, with Stephanie's company working to help pass NIL legislation while teaching young athletes valuable business and life skills.
