Mirin Fader: What Happens When the Dream Changes?
Mirin Fader doesn’t just write sports stories — she writes human stories.
As a New York Times bestselling author and senior NBA writer for The Athletic, she’s known for compassion, depth, and unforgettable storytelling. Her book Giannis became a bestseller, and her highly anticipated new book on Larry Bird is coming soon.
But before she became one of today’s most respected sports journalists, Mirin was a young girl who dreamed of playing in the WNBA. An unexpected injury in college changed everything — forcing her to rebuild, reimagine, and rediscover her purpose. That path led her to sports journalism… and ultimately to her calling.
In this episode of Unstoppable Podcast, we talk about:
• How losing basketball opened the door to writing
• How she fell in love with sports journalism
• The power of empathy when covering athletes
• Her encouraging words for young women in sports and journalism
• And how she’s approaching her upcoming Larry Bird project
Mirin’s journey is courageous, intentional, and absolutely unstoppable.
