We continue with our occassional series of features we call Women and Girls Lead in which we profile females from all walks of life who inspire us with stories of resilience, hope and empowerment.
The series, created for the web and TV, is a collaboration between KCPT and the Independent Television Service. This week, we meet area teenager Brionna Williams who attended Central High School in Kansas City, Missouri. Brionna overcame not just one but two big health obstacles, obesity and chronic asthma, to become a highly recruited student athlete.
