Thinking about the women that you know: your friends, sisters, mothers, we know that we are kind of stereotyped. You like sports, you're a tomboy. There are all of these labels ,which is natural for us as a society to do, but it's just really about reminding women of the power that we have inside of us and that you can do anything you put your mind to. You don't want to get stuck. You don't want to get stuck in your own mind.
Laila AliIf you're passionate about something, you believe in it, then you have to be consistent. And you have to put in the hard work that it takes to be successful.
Laila AliI've always like watching competition and athleticism. Just seeing the average person going up against Gladiators, is always something I enjoy. I'm not really a big sports fan, but I do enjoy the show.
Laila AliI was one of those people who wasn't getting a lot of milk, so I had to pump forever to just get two ounces of milk. But, you know, I wasn't going to give up or stop.
Laila AliI am thrilled and honored to have a seat at the table for meaningful conversation with so many accomplished women in the sports world.
