Ep. 146: Sport Governance, feat. Whitney Bragagnolo

This week, we're joined by Whitney Bragagnolo from the Sports Ethics Examiner.  Whitney is a PhD researcher in sport ethics, and a longtime practitioner of BJJ.  Whitney discusses how the absence of a true BJJ governing body leads to ethical issues, and explains how BJJ could solve these problems.Referenced in the episode:Earn a black belt in building a safer & ethical gymhttps://www.instagram.com/p/CS-fX7mIU0z/Shut Up & Train: A 2020 survey of sexual harassment and assault in the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu communityhttps://drive.google.com/drive/folders/13uam_vwd_0VJQ95Z64XREIK8wVoG7zIKFollow Whitney at the Sports Ethics Examiner on Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/thesportsethicsexaminer/Don't forget to check out BJJ Mental Models Premium!If you love the podcast, you’ll definitely love our premium membership offerings.
