    We’re thrilled to welcome legendary Harvard basketball coach Kathy Delaney-Smith for a moderated conversation about her book, Grit and Wit: Empowering Lives and Leaders.
    Kathy spent 40 seasons leading Harvard women’s basketball and retired as the winningest coach in Ivy League history. Part memoir and part leadership guide, Grit and Wit brings together stories and lessons about resilience, confidence, leadership, relationships, and living with intention.
    This will also be a particularly personal conversation for SCB founder Lesley Delaney Hawkins, who is Kathy’s niece and grew up learning from her example both on and off the court.
    We’ll talk about the experiences behind the book, Kathy’s unconventional approach to leadership, and how its lessons apply far beyond sports.

    The conversation will be followed by audience Q&A. Questions may also be submitted in advance to info@sobercuriousboston.com.
    No advance reading is required. Whether you’ve read Grit and Wit or simply want to hear from one of the most influential coaches in college athletics, we’d love to have you join us.
    Want to read the book? Purchase Grit and Wit here.

    Come for the book. Stay for the conversation.
