Azarenka launches first six episodes of new podcast

After becoming world No. 1 and winning the Australian Open twice, Victoria Azarenka is venturing into new territory: podcasting. The Belarusian just launched "Think About It", a new where she has in-depth conversations with big names from various industries around the world.

Discussing why she began the podcast, Azarenka says. "My goal was to learn and take the audience on that learning experience. The other goal was to show conversations between people who are in different fields being real and authentic."

Her six guests were announced on Thursday, so it's time meet them.

On this snowy day in Boulder, I woke up at home in my own bed for the (300th?) time, feeling the magnitude of how much I miss traveling & being outside; climbing & interacting w/ people who are local or similarly, have traveled to explore and experience life in a different way. pic.twitter.com/xMjxxxF6hA — Sasha DiGiulian (@sashadigiulian) January 26, 2021
