Summary

If you’ve ever been the only woman in a room of mostly men, you know the challenges of standing out and having your voice heard and respected. From small microaggressions to all-out harassment, women consistently fight patriarchial norms in male-dominated fields. Today’s guest knows all about this, as she was the ONLY woman in her field for two full decades. We’re joined by Molly Fletcher, known as the female Jerry Maguire, to talk about her time working her way up the ladder in the sports agent industry, how she’s negotiated millions of dollars of deals, and why she believes being the “only woman in the room” is her greatest secret weapon.
