Sophie Cunningham, WNBA player for the Phoenix Mercury and former Student Athlete from the University of Missouri, shares the power of hard work and a positive mindset in this week’s episode. We explore the difficult transitions from high school to college and from college to the WNBA and the mindset of embracing your role along the journey. Sophie shares the importance of having strong female role models in her family life, and how these empowering women helped her to look outside the box and push the limits for females in the Midwest. Finally, Sophie reminds us about the incredible power that we have as female athletes.

 “For us females who have made it, it is our duty to give back to those people who don't have that background of having strong women in their lives.”  - Sophie Cunningham
