For me, I think it's such a notable point to make that a leader had to believe, a leader had to see that potential.
I can't open doors that aren't open. But if a door opens, I would be happy to walk through.
It's 2015, and I'm the first female coach in any of the major sports. That's ridiculous!

I was living my dream as a WNBA player.
