This week I’m joined by Ashley Harkleroad- a WTA former top 40 player in the world and the first ever professional tennis player to feature on the Playboy magazine. She reached a career high of 39 in the world when she was just 18 years old and was dubbed the 'American Kournikova' at one point in her career.We discussed many things- what she’s been up to post-retirement, what it was like growing up in a small town in Georgia, her experience posing for the Playboy magazine, and balancing the roles of being a full-time mother and a professional tennis player.
