In this episode of the THSADA Director’s Cut – Hall of Honor Series presented by GigaTera Lighting, we sit down with Brenda Marshall, a 2025 Hall of Honor inductee and lifelong leader at Corpus Christi ISD.
With nearly four decades of service, Brenda’s story is a powerful reflection on breaking barriers, mentoring the next generation, and earning respect in a space where women were once sidelined. She shares her early experiences in a male-dominated field, the creative ways she built programs from the ground up, and why showing up — prepared, informed, and authentic — has always been her leadership superpower.
Topics covered in this episode include:
- Resilient leadership in a changing industry
- Mentorship, legacy, and building future ADs
- What’s changed for women in athletics — and what still needs work
- Insight from the 2025 Spring Sponsor Showcase
🎧 Whether you're an aspiring leader or seasoned AD, this episode is packed with real wisdom from someone who’s seen it all and still shows up with purpose.
