Protecting Women’s Sports with Riley Gaines

Today I am joined by Riley Gaines sharing her personal experience as a former female athlete competing against a transgender athlete. The injustice of allowing biological males to compete against biological females cannot be understated, and our young girls need us to fight for them. Riley has suggestions for parents and athletes when they are invited to competitions that allow transgender athletes to compete against biological females. 

Stick around for Happy Hour where I’m discussing more about the transgender movement in schools and in our culture in general and what we can do practically to move the needle.

Since then, she’s become one of the most powerful voices to speak out against males competing in women’s sports and recently expanded her message to reach future generations by authoring a children’s book which teaches kids about the importance of standing up for truth.
