Young Women On Fire

Your host Dawn has been a youth athlete and a lover of science since a very young age. She will take you on candid conversation interviews, speaking to young ladies and documenting their successes and journeys in the area of athletics and education. The inspiration for this podcast came from the knowledge that young women have a powerful voice. When they share their voices, encouraging, funny and sometimes heartfelt stories, I hope that you will find joy in what they have to offer.
