Summary
This week, Jason is joined by Megan Eugenio aka Overtime Megan!
Megan has been working with Overtime, a digital sports brand, aimed at the next generation of sports fans and athletes since early 2020. Her engaging personality and basketball knowledge helped her quickly gain a large audience on the Overtime platform, becoming one of their most recognizable faces. Over the last few years, her social media following has grown to over 3 million followers, and she continues to dip her toes in various areas in the sports and entertainment industries, including a recent guest appearance on NFL Red Zone with host Scott Hanson.
Megan Eugenio opens up about breaking into a male-dominated industry while staying true to her unapologetically girly self and keeping an open mind along the way. She shares the unexpected path that led her to Overtime within a month of starting school, working just four hours a week for $15 an hour as a college freshman, and eventually signing her talent contract. Megan discusses the importance of education, why having knowledge in your arsenal matters, and whether she’d ever consider leaving Overtime as she expands her reach into new ventures. She also dives into blind confidence, managing nerves, handling her Snapchat being hacked, and navigating the dark side of the internet after a public scandal. Megan reflects on building thick skin, leaning on a strong support system, her dream job, the hardest part of dating, and her biggest tips for succeeding on social media.
Megan reveals all this and so much more in another episode you can’t afford to miss!
