WOW! @WNBA All-Star weekend 🏀 in Chicago is amazin WOW! @WNBA All-Star weekend 🏀 in Chicago is amazing! One of the events I went to was an exclusive cocktail reception hosted by the president of @Playerstv - @iammicheleghee, Basketball legend - @Lisaleslie, and @Veronicabeard (51 clothing stores…soon to come Paris opening).

We gathered with an inspiring group of men and women across sports, business, media, and fashion for an evening of meaningful conversation. The reception was designed to bring together women who are passionate about uplifting, empowering, and championing one another while celebrating the growing partnership between PlayersTV, Veronica Beard, and @thebossnetwork. Now that’s what you call 𝑮𝑰𝑹𝑳 𝑷𝑶𝑾𝑬𝑹! 

It didn’t stop there! We were surprised with a performance by Grammy Award winners @Tarreytorae and @J_Ivy. 🎤 👏🏽👏🏽
