From Passion to Profession
“Women don't have a chance to pursue a career in sports.” Wrong! And not only that: diversity in sports and sports science is greater, more colorful, and more exciting than many people think.
In our podcast From Passion to Profession, we talk to people who have turned their passion into their profession—whether as competitive athletes, coaches, scientists, teachers, or managers. Our guests give unvarnished, authentic, and honest accounts of what it's like to pursue their own path in sports and sports science.

What to expect in this podcast
Are you curious about what a degree in sports science can offer you? We have the answers:
• What are the advantages of studying sports science as a professional coach?
• Can competitive athletes “make a living” from their sport?
• How can you balance family life with a career in sports?
• What role do diversity, inclusion, and equality play in everyday sports and sports science?
We dive into different professional fields and highlight career paths in sports and sports science. Not everything always goes smoothly—often it's the detours and obstacles that make for the most exciting stories.
Why the change?
• Originally launched as a female empowerment podcast, we are now opening up to more diversity: men, POC, LGBTQI+, and people with disabilities also tell their stories.
• Topics such as inclusion and diversity are becoming more prominent.
• Our goal remains the same: to provide genuine insights into sports—from as many perspectives as possible.
I was amazed at all the things you can do with a sports degree.
