Listen "Ep. 16: Director of Athlete and Community Relations at Overtime, Shea Dawson: How She Created Her Own Job At One of The World's Top Sports Networks"
Episode Synopsis
How the f**k did Shea Dawson draft up her own job description in order to transition out of the NBA and into Overtime? On today’s episode, we’re talking with Shea about how a clear life mission guided her through the teaching and sports worlds. Shea knew that her mission was to help athletes, especially those within the black community, leverage their platforms in sports for social and financial capital elsewhere. After working as a coach and a teacher for a few years, she started working with the Philadelphia 76ers. Eventually, she felt a push to do more, so she drew up a sort of manifesto outlining her dream job and sent it off to Overtime. They started the process of hiring her shortly after. So how did Shea really solidify her own mission? And what Shea Dawson quote will we put right under the Pete Carrol rejection note in the HTFDYGTJ? history books?
