In today's world of sports, young girls are not just watching the game-they're changing it. Women Who Lead shares the powerful stories of 11 female athletes who've made their mark through talent, determination, and the courage to stand for something bigger than sports. From basketball to tennis, soccer to snowboarding, this book captures how each of these women chased greatness in their own way-and how they're using their voices to influence the next generation. Meet athletes like Caitlin Clark, who has shattered records with fearless confidence. Learn how Serena Williams turned a love of tennis into a worldwide movement. Follow Allyson Felix as she redefined success on and off the track. And discover how rising stars like Iga Świątek and Paige Bueckers are already inspiring thousands with their stories of grit and growth. This book doesn't just highlight the trophies or medals. It focuses on the quiet moments, the tough decisions, and the unshakable belief these women had in themselves-especially when it wasn't easy. Whether it's through advocacy, leadership, or personal challenges, each story shows what it really means to lead with purpose. Created for young readers, aspiring athletes, and anyone interested in the real journeys behind today's most influential sports figures, Women Who Lead is more than just a collection of biographies. It's a celebration of courage, strength, and the impact of showing up as your full self-on and off the field.
