18 – Fearless and All Fire -Mariah Bracamonte

Описание: Fearless and All Fire!

Fearless and All Fire describes Mariah Bracamonte’s approach to baseball—unapologetically bold, fiercely competitive, and grounded in love for the game. In this high-energy episode of The SLIDE Podcast, Mariah shares what drives her as a baseball infielder, how she blocks distractions, and why stepping on the field makes her feel unstoppable.

Playing with Heart and Hustle

Mariah opens up about her competitive fire and how catching has shaped her mindset. She thrives commanding the field with confidence and toughness. Even when the pressure is high, she stays locked in and refuses to let fear take over. Her ability to “be loud and not care what anyone thinks” fuels her leadership role and has earned her respect from teammates and coaches alike.

Confidence Through Adversity

Although she’s been underestimated before, Mariah uses that doubt as motivation. She talks about how being fearless isn’t just about being tough—it’s about playing with purpose and having fun doing it. “I just love being on the field,” she says. “It’s like nothing else matters when I’m there.” Whether she's diving to block a ball or cheering on her team, Mariah shows up 100% every time.

More Than a Catcher

Mariah isn’t just a baseball player—she’s a student, a leader, and someone who brings her full personality to everything she does. From choosing walkout songs that hype her up to speaking about what makes a great teammate, she shows maturity and joy well beyond her years. Her attitude is a reminder that the game is supposed to be fun—and that confidence and fire can make all the difference.
