KHRISTINA WILLIAMS- on starting her own digital media network

Kelly Season 2 Episode 3

Khristina Williams is redefining how to carve out your niche in sports. In 2018, Williams founded Girls Talk Sports TV, as a way to give a voice and visibility to women in sports, specifically women’s basketball. She bet on herself, and it’s paid off—recently being named a Forbes ’30 Under 30’ in sports.


In this long-form conversation, Williams talks about the inspiration for starting her own digital media outlet, the importance of representation and how she’s helping to open doors for the next generation. She discusses why access is a challenge for women of color, the challenge of finding her first gig and why delay is not denial.


Williams shares why she’s living proof you don’t need a huge platform to make a difference, why her platform resonates so well with WNBA fans, and the importance of using your voice for positive change.


She explains how her background in fashion and entertainment helped the transition to sports and the key to breaking WNBA stories and developing sources, when you’re a non-traditional media outlet.
