About The Athleap

The Athleap is a media company built at the intersection of women's sports and business. We cover the deals, the dollars, and the decisions shaping the fastest-growing market in professional athletics.

Founded by K. Nicole Mills — a producer and director with a decade of experience telling stories in sports — The Athleap started as a documentary studio and has grown into a full media brand. Our editorial arm, The Athleap News, publishes twice weekly on the culture and capital behind women's sports. Our studio arm produces short-form documentary content and branded campaigns for brands entering the space.

We believe women's sports deserves coverage that matches the weight of the moment. Not just highlights — the business intelligence, the athlete economics, the ownership strategy, and the sponsorship power that's rewriting what professional sports looks like.
