Today’s guest has been all over the news, I’m pretty confident you have heard about Danita Johnson’s BIG move from the LA Sparks to become the President of Business Operations at D.C. United. This move is historical, and positions Danita as the third woman in league history to become President and the first African-American President of any Major League Soccer club.
It's always great to have those ahead of us, like Danita, to look up to while we are out there CREATING our own path to greatness. What I loved about this podcast was how open Danita was about her journey and what positioned her to be a successful woman working in sport. And spoiler alert, this advice is great for the guys listening too! You will learn exactly why Danita made the switch from the WNBA to the MLS and her plans moving forward in her new role.
