Ela aprendeu a nadar ainda bebê e, dos nove aos dezenove anos, dedicou-se à natação competitiva, passando também pelo polo aquático, experiências que construíram a base que sustentaria sua trajetória. Ao mesmo tempo, cultivava uma curiosidade quase enciclopédica pelos esportes em geral, acompanhando resultados e estatísticas. Enquanto avançava nos estudos de Engenharia Civil, o ritmo intenso entre faculdade e trabalho em uma construtora a afastou momentaneamente das piscinas. Um episódio de estresse, porém, a levou de volta à atividade física, primeiro pela corrida e em seguida pelo ciclismo. Pouco tempo mais tarde, já disputava um triathlon sprint. O passo seguinte foi natural: em 2005 estreou no triathlon e, em 2006, brilhou ao conquistar o título mundial amador do Ironman 70.3 em sua faixa etária, resultado que despertou nela a vontade antiga de se tornar atleta profissional. Super dedicada, sua progressão foi consistente e rápida. Tornou-se tricampeã brasileira de longa distância, conquistou um top 10 no Mundial de Longa Distância de 2008 e a 5ª colocação no Ironman Brasil 2009. Ainda foi eleita atleta revelação e melhor triatleta de longa distância do país. Sua carreira, no entanto, sofreu uma reviravolta quando um grave acidente de bicicleta a afastou das competições por meses. Entre a reabilitação e a reconstrução, encontrou espaço para uma nova vertente: a comunicação. Atuou como colunista esportiva, comentarista, repórter e produtora de triathlon. O retorno às competições trouxe novas conquistas, mas também abriu portas para o empreendedorismo. Em um período em que se afastou do esporte, desta vez para realizar duas cirurgias, cofundou uma agência de marketing esportivo que desenvolveu projetos inovadores, entre eles a famosa Casa do Brasil em Kona. Nos últimos anos, ampliou ainda mais sua participação no ciclismo, em provas de estrada e de gravel, acumulando pódios em diversos eventos, ao mesmo tempo em que deu os primeiros passos como comentarista de ciclismo na ESPN e passou a integrar a equipe do podcast Gregário Cycling. Projetos autorais em redes sociais, como resumos de provas e coberturas dos Jogos Olímpicos de Tóquio e Paris, ampliaram seu alcance e deram uma nova voz ao esporte olímpico brasileiro. Conosco de volta, a engenheira com MBA internacional em Gerenciamento de Projetos, educadora física, ex-triatleta profissional que se tornou ciclista, comunicadora, fundadora da Flows Sports Marketing, podcaster, comentarista e narradora esportiva que se transformou na voz do ciclismo feminino no Brasil, a goianense Ana Lídia dos Santos Borba.

Charlie Kirk assassination 2025 demands answers, patriots—@intheMatrixxx and @shadygrooove unleash unfiltered fury with Season 7, Episode 173, “The Charlie Kirk Tragedy; Remembering 9/11,” airing live today, September 11, 2025, at 12:05 PM Eastern! These battle-tested truth warriors, forged in the fires of Twitter's deep-state ban and rising to awaken a sleeping giant, plunge into the gut-wrenching details of conservative powerhouse Charlie Kirk's fatal shooting in the neck on September 10, 2025, during his electrifying American Comeback Tour at Utah Valley University in Orem. As the FBI's $100,000 reward sparks tips and a person of interest's photo floods X, Jeff and Shannon rip apart the inconsistencies—like the leaked ATF report on a high-powered Mauser .30-06 bolt-action rifle engraved with trans and anti-fascist markings, found in woods after a sniper fled 200 yards away in 10-15 mph winds, per police scanners and bystander videos. Utah Governor Spencer Cox brands it a blatant "political assassination," amid detained-then-released suspects George Zinn and Zachariah Qureshi, foreign intel whispers from John Solomon, and Blue Sky threats targeting JK Rowling, Matt Walsh, and Elon Musk. They torch the radical left's bloodlust, from Jezebel's cursed Etsy witches scramble to MSDNC dumping analyst Matthew Dowd for his bile, and Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker's Trump-blaming deflection—proving how globalist hate from the likes of the Minnesota lawmaker slaying and Pennsylvania arson fuels this war on America-First voices, birthing a million Kirk-inspired fighters armed with ballots, not bullets. Igniting Kirk's fearless legacy, the hosts blast an "Inspire someone today" rallying cry to embolden youth against tyranny, syncing with Jesse Watters' Fox News bombshell: a "turning point" where "they are at war with us," swearing vengeance via media rat hunts and political accountability. They amplify President Donald J. Trump's Oval Office thunder—"My Fellow Americans," dubbing Kirk "the Great, and even Legendary" youth whisperer, unveiling a posthumous Presidential Medal of Freedom to etch his Turning Point USA triumphs into eternity. Pivoting to sacred ground, the show vows "We will never forget" 9/11's 2,977 heroes lost 24 years ago at Ground Zero, the Pentagon, and Flight 93—first responders charging into hell, a generational shift now led by their children's solemn recitations amid toxic legacy deaths topping attack tolls. DJT's Pentagon address with First Lady Melania, secured indoors against threats, fuses 9/11 resilience with Kirk grief, while Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's tear-streaked eulogy hails Charlie as a "good and faithful servant" and "incredible American patriot" whose arena roar demands "full hearts, clear eyes—you will never be forgotten." Echoing the live chat's WWG1WGA fire—prayers, unity blasts, and psyop calls—the MG Show forges unbreakable patriot bonds, shunning reactionary traps for constitutional steel. This is the crucible where America-First legends are born, delivering live intel blasts, savage wit, and narrative-shredding analysis that crushes deep-state deceptions and rallies the republic's guardians. The truth is learned, never told, and the constitution is your weapon—tune in at noon-0-five Eastern LIVE to stand with Trump! Charlie Kirk assassination 2025, Turning Point USA, 9/11 remembrance, never forget 9/11, political assassination, Trump Kirk tribute, MG Show, @intheMatrixxx, @shadygrooove, Utah Valley University shooting, FBI manhunt, Jesse Watters reaction, Pete Hegseth eulogy, America First, political violence, Presidential Medal of Freedom, Ground Zero ceremony, Patriot Day 2025 mgshow_s7e173_charlie_kirk_assassination_911_remembrance Tune in weekdays at 12pm ET / 9am PST, hosted by @InTheMatrixxx and @Shadygrooove.

After nine years of collaborating virtually, Carly and Joe finally met face-to-face at the INBOUND conference in San Francisco. The sessions were buzzing with AI talk, but Carly and Joe zeroed in on what really matters for solopreneurs: marketing strategy that puts people first. In this episode, they unpack why human connection is more powerful than any algorithm, how trust fuels business growth, and why a solid strategy beats chasing every shiny new tactic. Whether it's AI Engine Optimization or grassroots networking, you'll learn how to cut through the noise and build marketing that actually works for solopreneurs.Important Takeaways From The EpisodeWhy is marketing strategy more important than tactics for solopreneurs? Because tactics change constantly. New platforms, AI tools, and algorithms come and go, but if you have a clear strategy, knowing who you serve, what your brand stands for, and how you build trust, you can adapt to any trend. Strategy is your foundation, tactics are just the tools you plug in along the way.How does AI impact solopreneur marketing? AI is creating noise in the marketplace, making it harder for people to know what's authentic. The good news? That actually gives solopreneurs an edge. Solopreneurs have always relied on real human connection and trust to grow their businesses, and those skills are now more valuable than ever. AI can support your work by handling repetitive tasks, but it should never replace your strategy or your voice.What are the key steps to building an effective solopreneur marketing strategy? It comes down to five essentials:Build trust.Create resonance.Establish desire.Inspire action.Repeat the process.This loop ensures your marketing always stays people-centered, no matter the trends. Okay, this might be the craziest offer we've ever made. We're giving away a solopreneur platform that normally costs five hundred dollars a year…For twenty-five bucks. And not for a month, not for a year… forever.All you have to do is pre-order our new book: Solopreneur Business for Dummies.When we first went solo, we thought we could just Google our way through it. But the advice out there? It was built for startups with teams and money, not someone trying to do it all themselves. We kept thinking: “There's gotta be a better way.”So we made one.

Is It Too Late to Start a Podcast? Roy Coughlan Doesn't Think So I sat down with Roy Coughlan, a serial entrepreneur turned podcast coach, to tackle a question that's been floating around like last week's leftovers: Is podcasting still worth it? If you've been wondering whether the market is too crowded or if there's even room for one more voice (yours), Roy has a clear answer: Yes, there's room. Especially for podcasters who stick with it. Because while millions may have started podcasts, only a small percentage are still active. The rest? Abandoned somewhere between episode 10 and a pile of unrealistic expectations. Roy's message wasn't just encouraging—it was refreshingly honest. He's hosted six shows and coached countless others, so he knows both the magic and the mess behind the mic. Why Podcasting Still Matters 1. It's not just about downloads. Podcasting gives you a direct channel to build relationships, showcase your expertise, and create meaningful conversations. Think of it less like broadcasting and more like building trust at scale. 2. It opens doors without cold calls. Inviting your ideal customer to be a guest? That's a warm introduction with zero awkward sales pitch. You're building relationships, not just content. 3. It makes you smarter. Hosting a podcast is like getting a masterclass every week. You ask the questions you're curious about and walk away sharper than when you started. 4. It's a ripple effect. Inspire one person, and who knows where that impact lands? Roy's seen podcasting create unexpected waves of positivity—sometimes in ways he didn't realize until much later. 5. You don't need a massive audience to make a difference. If 50 people listen to your episode, imagine them sitting in a room, eyes on you. Feels different, doesn't it? Actionable Takeaways for Women Business Owners Set realistic expectations. Success won't happen overnight. Keep going past the “episode 10 slump” where most people quit. Podcasting is a long game, not a viral moment. Use podcasting as a marketing tool. Record an episode that answers a client's question. Share it ahead of a meeting to warm up the conversation and show your expertise. Start simple. Don't overcomplicate it with gear and gadgets. Roy's been using the same plug-and-play mic for years. Focus on content, not cables. Choose one platform to focus on. Rather than spreading yourself thin across every social channel, master one. Get good systems in place before expanding. Be a good podcast citizen. Leave a comment. Share a show. If something helped you, support the creator. Positive feedback fuels better content and stronger communities. Keep your podcast structure nimble. Things can (and will) go wrong. Use editing tools to clean up the audio and keep the process fun—not frustrating. One Last Thought Podcasting isn't just a marketing tactic—it can be a creative outlet, a learning platform, and a powerful tool for connection. Whether you've got a story to tell, a message to share, or just want to have better conversations, Roy's advice is simple: Start where you are. Stay curious. And most importantly, enjoy the process.
