Hurdle 315. Getting It Right: Athleta's Chief Marketing Officer Ilona Aman On Sacrifice, Hard Work & Turning A Moment Into A Movement
If you look up "hard work" in the dictionary, you may just find a photo of Athleta's Chief Marketing Officer Ilona Aman. This conversation truly touches on so many of my favorite topics: Careers, entrepreneurship, wellness, women in sport, a fresh perspective on imposter syndrome, and so much more. In today's episode, Ilona gets real about the challenges that go hand in hand with being so career motivated, how she structures her family for balance, and her motivation to inspire her daughter and the next generation.
