The Most Unlikely Story with Mellody Hobson

from Bout That Time | Real. Insightful. Empowering. · host Progress Productions

Mellody Hobson and I discuss a number of influences and experiences that got her to where she is today. She is the President of Ariel Investments, Vice Chair of the Board of Starbucks, Chairman of After School Matters, and, amongst other things, was named to TIME's 100 Most Influential People list. We touch base on her upbringing, how she went from intern to president, the impact fitness has on her life performance, her peerless work ethic, her marriage, circle of friends, as well as the realization that everyone doesn't want what she wants. Truly a FORCE and an insightful listen. Please share, rate, review, and subscribe! @McClainStrong @ProgProductions www.AnthonyMcClain.com Sound Editor: Chuck Lewis
