Listen Later

If you're not motivated to work hard and be a good human after listening to this conversation with WNBA great Nneka Ogwumike, loaded with so many gem one-liners and inspirational highlights, then you weren’t really listening. For episode 194, we talk about what it was like for her to grow up in an active family, going to Stanford, and traveling to play basketball overseas. She also shares the unconventional way she became the president of the Women’s National Basketball Players Association (“WNBPA”), and how it felt when they passed the collective bargaining agreement — abbreviated as the CBA. Plus, she talks about the hard lessons she learned navigating a knee injury last year when it comes to accepting help from others, and lets us in on her attitude, gratitude, magnitude journaling practice.
