Summary

The Nikki & Brie Show continues to spotlight badass women for Women’s History Month. This time they sit down with trailblazer A.J. Andrews, the first woman EVER to win a Rawlings Gold Glove and a powerhouse voice bringing visibility, passion, and purpose to softball and baseball around the world. From backyard tee ball to LSU stardom, to making history on the biggest stage, A.J.’s journey is built on grit, discipline, and an unshakable belief in herself. But what hits deepest in this episode isn’t just the accolades… it’s the mindset. The resilience. The decision to embrace failure as fuel and keep showing up again and again. This conversation is a reminder that representation matters, hard work compounds, and sometimes just showing up is the most powerful move you can make. Because when women support each other the game changes, the doors open, and history gets rewritten.
