  • Ep 6: Equal pay for all with Rebecca Lobo and Sam Saperstein
    Sep 8 2023
    In our last episode, we explore the issue at the very heart of the podcast: equal pay for all. More than 50 years ago, Billie Jean King and the Original Nine paved the way for fair pay. Several generations of athletes in their stead have continued the fight, including basketball star and broadcaster Rebecca Lobo. As a UConn championship winner and one of the first players in the WNBA, Rebecca has advocated for equal pay and accommodations throughout her career. We’re also joined by J.P. Morgan’s Sam Saperstein, the head of “Women on the Move,” an initiative that teaches women about career skills, leadership, financial literacy and much more. Learn more about your ad choices.
