Without experiencing true difficulty, doubt, or adversity, it\u2019s hard to know what any of us are really capable of. Truth is unless we\u2019re thrust into such adversity, it\u2019s nearly impossible to manufacture the type of hardship required to test our limits.\xa0\nToday\u2019s guest, ESPN college basketball analyst Steffi Sorensen, has dealt with more than her fair share. And while she probably wouldn\u2019t wish recent experiences on anyone, there\u2019s no doubt she\u2019s grateful for the resilience built along the way. Join us as we discuss her path and how she\u2019s managed to turn doubters and difficult times into an advantage.\xa0\nSteffi was a former women\u2019s basketball player at Florida, joined ESPN in 2011 as a color commentator, and is now a college basketball analyst and sideline reporter for SEC Network. She joined SEC Now as an analyst for the 2019-20 women\u2019s basketball season. She was a sideline reporter for college football games on FOX Sports, as well as a fitness model and trainer. She spent one year playing professional basketball in France before starting as a color analyst for ESPN3 in 2010.\nWe discuss:\xa0\nManaging introversion as a public figure and professional speaker\xa0\nHow to assert yourself and find your voice as a young professional\nFinding your \u201con-air\u201d personality without sacrificing authenticity\xa0\nLearning from and through mistakes made (even on national television)\nConnect with Steffi:\nVia Instagram: @steffi_sorensen\nVia LinkedIn: Steffi Sorensen\nIf you didn\u2019t already hear\u2026 we have a new partner in hydration!
