Renee is the Founder & CEO of Amazi Foods, a mindful tropical-fruit food company that works directly with small businesses and farmers groups in Uganda to make these delicious snacks that are bringing some much-needed excitement into the dried fruit category. Amazi originated largely from Renee's college trip to Uganda where she completed her thesis research. She noticed that there were many delicious local organic fruits - something that wasn't prevalent in the states. However, the local markets had very limited access outside Uganda. The supply chains were broken. Now, Renee is dedicated to building a better supply chain and supporting economic development in Uganda. Fast forward a few more years, Amazi has sourced from over 300 farmers in Uganda with more than half being women, and is in top retailers like Amazon, Wegmans and soon to be Whole Foods Market.

As the world's greatest athletes descend on Paris for the 2024 Olympics, we find ourselves in the golden age of women's team sports. Over the past year alone we've seen record viewership and attendance across the board, punctuated by the more than two billion viewers who tuned into the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup. However, it was another World Cup, 25 years ago, that first transformed “women's sports” to just “sports.” That U.S. Women's National Team win over China – and Brandi Chastain's legendary celebration – put female athletes in the spotlight like never before – until now. But what would've happened if the U.S. had lost that World Cup Final? Would superstars like Diana Taurasi, Sue Bird, A'ja Wilson, Megan Rapinoe, Sophia Smith, Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese have ever gotten the chance to shine? What indispensable article of clothing would never have gotten its due? And what does this have to do with Tebowing, T.O.'s popcorn and the Steph Shimmy?!

Twenty-five years later than expected and following several false starts, women's professional soccer looks to finally be planting long-term roots. And at the center of it all is one of the icons of a US championship team. Brandi Chastain, whose electrifying penalty kick in front of more than 90,000 screaming fans at the Rose Bowl sealed the 1999 Women's World Cup, is a co-owner of Bay FC, the latest franchise to join the fast-growing National Women's Soccer League (NWSL). So what's the difference with this league, this time, after two earlier failures? Solid investment for the long haul. The moment seems to have arrived for women's soccer, as it has for the broader profile of women in American sports. Bay FC was taking the field this spring just as the women's edition of NCAA March Madness kept breaking its own records, driven by outsized performances and personalities like Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese. This new era of attention and support for women's sports hasn't seen its equal since Chastain's famous, jersey-shedding celebration of her World Cup victory. That team—and its successors—produced stars that broke through into the broader public consciousness: Carli Lloyd, Alex Morgan and Megan Rapinoe among them. But all that excitement needed money to sustain it. These days, Chastain has linked up with Sixth Street Partners, a global investment firm that's developed a business case for women's sports. Now, Chastain says, it's up to her and her fellow owners to leverage not just the money, but the expertise. That means blending her experience as a World Cup winner, Olympic gold medalist and coach with the analytics generated across reams of Sixth Street spreadsheets to produce a winning team.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
