Another great day in Cleveland for the #WFinalFour ! I was honored to join a panel this morning alongside powerful women from across the sports ecosystem for Women Leaders and NCAA March Madness inaugural NCAA Women's Final Four Women's Sports Leadership VIP Summit. #PlaytoLead
Some great advice courtesy of Vice President Kamala Harris and our Founder Billie Jean King 💪💪 #PlaytoLead
It was an honor to be the first Vice President to host a celebration of women in sports.
To Billie Jean King, Women's Sports Foundation, and all the leaders who joined me: Thank you for the work you do every day to lift up women and girls across our nation and around the world.
WOW! I’m still reeling after a remarkable afternoon spent at the Vice President Kamala Harris's residence to celebrate women in sport in honor of #WomensHistoryMonth . Together, let's continue to change the game because when girls and women play, they lead and we all win! #WSF50
Thank you Danette Leighton, Women's Sports Foundation , Billie Jean King and Kamala Harris for an incredible afternoon of inspiration and power. Beyond humbled to be included in this gathering! Together we can, and together we WILL! #WeAreWomenLeaders 💪💚💙
Celebrating the vital role that sports play in society alongside the Vice President Kamala Harris and legendary game changers like Women's Sports Foundation Founder, Billie Jean King was remarkable.
What a way to celebrate women in sports in honor of #WomensHistoryMonth !
I am looking forward to moderating tomorrow's panel SXSW and excited to dive into why women’s sports should be viewed as a startup - not a charity - and much more with this incredible lineup of panelists. #SHEMedia #ThisIsFlowSpace #FlowSpace
