Not Your Token Woman with First Female NFL Coach Dr. Jen Welter

From leveraging the $500Bn impact investing opportunity to building a unicorn to IPO, and scaling a VC firm - all of these efforts require vision from the leaders at the helm, and most importantly the willingness to PLAY IT BIG, as athletes in our own fields. This week, we took a different turn in examining high-performance and went deep with Dr.Jen, the first female NFL Coach on what's not playing big right now in the world of sport. Dr. Jen Welter tackled her football career with tenacity and an unprecedented track record of pioneering firsts. Building on her career in women’s football, that included 2 Gold medals with Team USA, 4 World Championships and 8 All-Star selections, Dr. Jen busted into the men’s game, as the first female running back signed to a men’s professional team. She broke through the biggest boys club of all, the NFL, as the first female coach in the league and the Madden NFL 20 video game.
