Episode Title: 🇺🇸The Best-Kept Secret🇺🇸

This is a fascinating discussion of the #HTSportsSeries on Heads Talk. During my research for this new series, I discovered a role I had previously been unaware of. My guest today was the first to hold this title and role, and we had a brilliant conversation about it. The audiogram below shares a fraction of our findings with you.

Dr. Ashleigh Huffman, the former Chief of Sports Diplomacy at the U.S. Department of State, joined me to dissect the complex and often delicate role of sports as a tool for soft power in negotiations. She provided detailed case studies demonstrating the efficacy of various initiatives around the globe. The discussion was truly fascinating - and yes, I do use that word often, revealing the fine line between sports and diplomacy and showcasing the noble causes furthered by her work.

Currently, Dr. Huffman serves as the Vice President of Global Engagement at the Institute for Sport and Social Justice. This episode is a must-listen to understand the significant impact of her contributions to real diplomacy through sports.
