Interview with Robina Singh-National Director at Ascend , USA.



In this episode, I am happy to introduce to you Robina Singh where we talk about women, sports and leadership. Many of us as women leave aside the importance of sports in our progress and leadership. I had this wonderful conversation with Robina on this topic and here it is for our wonderful listeners.
