It's the confidence in this episode for me. Meet Em Johnson: A proud, multi-hyphenate content creator who has been behind the camera working with some of the top female athletes in sport. In this week's episode, she talks about how she got her start while playing college basketball, channeling her effort into something creative when she wasn't getting the playing time she deserved. The Brooklyn-based creative shares what it was like to be employee No. 2 at TOGETHXR, what it was like for her to transition into working for herself, and how she navigated extreme anxiety and mental health struggles and came out on the other side better. Plus: Her feelings on the lack of other female photographers on popular sidelines, what it's like to work with Breanna Stewart, and what she's looking forward to most in the next few years.
