Jemele Hill on Moving Past ESPN, Industry Struggles and Remembering Who You Are

Kev talks with Emmy-winning journalist and host of the Spolitics podcast, Jemele Hill, for a candid and thought-provoking conversation. Jemele opens up about what really happened during her time at ESPN, the current political climate shaping journalism and the entertainment industry, and the challenges of getting meaningful projects across the finish line.

She reflects on her memoir, Uphill, falling short of the New York Times Bestseller List, why it crushed her in the moment, and how she ultimately turned that disappointment into fuel for her upcoming children’s book. Jemele also shares how her husband, Ian Wallace, has been a constant source of strength, grounding her during moments of self-doubt and reminding her of who she is when the noise gets loud.
