Ricky Day with Sanya Richards-Ross on her Olympic Gold Medals, joining the cast of Real Housewives of Atlanta, and the toughest decision of her life

My guest on this 4th Season Premiere episode of the podcast is Sanya Richards-Ross. Sanya is long-ranked the world’s best 400m runner, a 4-time Olympic Gold medal winner, a two time  IAAF Athlete of the Year, and Track & Field News’ Athlete of the Decade. This talented black woman is also a NBC Track and Field commentator, the founder of Mommi Nation, a loving wife, devoted mother and a cast member of The Real Housewives of Atlanta.

In our dynamic and engaging conversation we reflect briefly on her childhood and journey to track and field, but things quickly get introspective as we discuss the toughest decision of her life, her loving partnership with her husband two-time Superbowl champion and former NY Giant Aaron Ross, the importance of family and embracing her blackness, and why she agreed to join the cast of The Real Housewives of Atlanta.

This is a great way to start our fourth season and I hope you love this convo as much as I loved having it.
