Season 3 Ep 8: Anne Montgomery, Believing in Yourself by Older & Bolder with Debbie McCulloch

In this inspiring episode of Older & Bolder, Debbie McCulloch speaks with Anne Montgomery, whose journey proves that believing in yourself can defy the odds. Anne recounts the moment she declared her dream of becoming a sportscaster, only to be told that no woman had ever succeeded in that field. Refusing to let doubt hold her back, Anne forged a groundbreaking career, working as a television sportscaster for five major stations, including ESPN, and even serving as a studio host for the NBA’s Phoenix Suns.

You’ll smile hearing Anne’s story about how Magic Johnson’s charm helped smooth her entry into the sports world. Anne’s passion for sport didn’t stop with broadcasting—she also spent four decades officiating baseball, hockey, soccer, and basketball as a referee and umpire.

As Anne shares how she transitioned from sportscasting to writing for publications and later publishing several novels, you’ll be reminded that no dream is too big when you believe in yourself and keep pushing forward.
