Women Empowerment Wednesday
The Chicago Sky and I Choose the Ladder have partnered together to bring you Women Empowerment Wednesdays powered by Walgreens. Every Wednesday between August 19 – September 16 we will offer you a podcast from an executive woman with an inspirational story that we hope will help you advance your career and expand your goals. Our theme this year is #NoCeiling because we believe that there are no limits to what you can accomplish when you believe in yourself and these women are just a few examples of that.
Check back every week to hear another inspiring story
