In this episode,
Mollie Cahillane, Sr. TV Reporter for Adweek, joins Amie to talk about the trends in convergent TV, how the media rights landscape has become overcrowded and cluttered, and what may be on the horizon for sports streaming services like ESPN, Hulu and Apple TV.
They discuss her role as
host of Adweek’s Most Powerful Women in Sports podcast, some of her most memorable guests, and she shares the story of how she was selected by Lisa Granatstein to be the one who would carry the program forward. They get into it on the topic of
women’s sports, what’s helping, what’s hurting, and what
she believes needs to happen to level the playing field with sponsors and investors.
Mollie has built a brand and reputation for herself as an expert in
convergent TV and
women’s sports by writing compelling articles, reading a ton of content, owning her voice on Twitter, creating a lane, and staying highly focused in it. HER advice for aspiring leaders who want to have influence: learn everything you can about your area of focus, ask questions, study your niche, don’t be afraid to brag about yourself, and make yourself the GO-TO person.
