She is the author of More Than A Doll: How Creating a Sports Doll Turned into a Fight to End Gender Stereotypes (Post Hill Press, January 2025), which connects the dots from sexualized dolls, to the subtle damage inflicted on girls’ confidence, to implicit biases we hold about gender, to decisions we make as adults that prevent true gender equity. Jodi is the founder of Dream Big Toy Company and the creator of the award-winning Go! Go! Sports Girls line of dolls, books, and apps for girls encouraging healthy and active play over beauty and body image. She is an activist pushing media and retail to do a better job portraying women and girls beyond stereotypes.
