Listen "More than Models: How Sisterhood was Born in the SI Swim Search (ft. Hopefuls Mandy, Summer, &Kellie)"
Episode Synopsis
SUPRISE!! -- That's a bit sarcastic. If you've been following me at all on my personal Instagram account @kellierenehall, this episode is actually NOT a surprise. I've been competing in the Sports Illustrated (SI) Swim Search since August 3rd, 2020 with the hope of catching the eye of the SI staff. I came into this search with the goal of spreading my platform, inspiring women, but I had NO IDEA that this process would cultivate both a sisterhood and community of people who are looking to do the same. In this episode, I'm sitting down with two other Sports Illustrated hopefuls who I instantly connected with at the beginning of this journey: Summer + Mandy. We came into this search with such different motivations + reasons, yet we've supported each other + developed such a strong bond which we could have never anticipated. Tune in to hear WHY we decided to do the Swim Search, what it means to us, what drives us, + what has kept us going in the months since it began. Thank you to Summer + Mandy for taking the time to open their hearts to me + #missunderstood, + good luck to my ladies in the search!!______________________Summer Wilson is a 30 year old hustler originally from North Carolina where she went to East Carolina University and studied public relations.
