Maria Sharapova challenges female ambition in 'Pretty Tough'

Tennis Hall of Famer Maria Sharapova is launching a podcast, Pretty Tough, where she’ll talk with influential women about their ambition, work ethic and challenges. She calls it a “front-row seat” to unapologetic, high-achieving women. “I want to talk to the women who gave themselves permission to ride and do and believe in more than just what others think of them,” she said in a video on X, adding that the podcast is “about the pursuit of achievement without apology.” The first episode drops April 22, with new episodes every Wednesday.
