                                    <description><![CDATA[<p>In Episode Four of May She Reign, Farida sits down with basketball analyst Monica McNutt for a conversation about ambition, confidence, redirection, community, competition, and what it means to build a life that feels full.</p>
<p>Monica talks about the lessons that shaped her long before television, from learning what it really means to put in the work to understanding that none of us has to be just one thing.</p>
<p>They talk about the moments that redirect us, the careers and lives we build along the way, and the idea of “having it all.” Monica offers a different way to think about it: maybe the goal is not to have everything, but to have enough of what matters.</p>
<p>The conversation also gets into supporting yourself while supporting others, competing without losing your sense of community, defining fulfillment for yourself, and what it has been like to have a front row seat to such an unforgettable moment for the New York Knicks.</p>
<p>A conversation about doing the work, trusting yourself, making room for others, and building a life that feels full on your own terms.</p>

They talk about how style can change the way we feel internally, the importance of understanding what makes you feel most like yourself, and why the right community can sometimes see your potential before you can.</p>
<p>They also get into trusting your intuition, staying connected to your “why,” and building a career around work that genuinely lights you up.</p>

                                    <description><![CDATA[<p class="isSelectedEnd">For the first episode of May She Reign, Farida sits down with ESPN NFL reporter Kimberley A. Martin for an honest conversation about ambition, career risks, authenticity, and learning to trust your own voice.</p>
<p class="isSelectedEnd">Kimberley shares how perfecting her craft, connecting genuinely with people, and owning what makes her different have shaped the career she has built. They talk about standing out without trying to become someone else, listening to your instincts, and allowing your path to unfold differently from the life you may once have planned.</p>
<p class="isSelectedEnd">The conversation also explores drive, happiness, and the question at the center of every defining decision: What do you want your story to be? Kimberley reflects on juggling the many parts of a full life without dropping the plates that matter most—and finding fulfillment in where she is while continuing to reach for what comes next.</p>
<p>This episode is about building a life that may not have followed the plan, but feels entirely your own.</p>
