About this episode
Former Harvard women’s basketball coach Kathy Delaney-Smith joins Sarah to talk 40 years in Cambridge, from accepting the Harvard job to get free tennis court time and the most athletic team she ever faced (hint: Olympic track star Marion Jones played point guard), to her team’s legendary upset of a No. 1 seed and using meditation with her players. Plus, one college hoops star is harnessing the healing benefits of art, and a reminder that a lot of us harbor more self-doubt than we should.
