Satellite Sisters covers the gamut from women in the workplace to drama in the skies to a first date. Yeah, Satellite Sisters Of The Week: Congrats to the astronauts who executed the first ever all-female space walk and to Ann McClain, the woman left behind who cheered them on. Personally, we would have behaved more like Aidy Bryant on the SNL skit. According to McKInsey and Fortune Magazine, what's between you and that last big promotion? It's not getting that first big promotion. They call it "the broken rung" and it appears to be the biggest system barrier to gender parity. Liz visited the National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, DC. Want to meet America's Sweetheart? Here's Adam Rippon's Book Tour Schedule Who is sticking up for Meghan Markle? We are. Hang in there, sister. The latest fights on planes? Julie says it's about the window shades now and she's got some rules. Entertaining Sisters: Watch the new Catherine the Great with Helen Mirren on HBO Read Circe by Madeline Miller. Just catching up on Succession? Us, too. Liz and Sheila have Succession confessions. Guest coming up next week: Laura Holson, NYT journalist and creator of The Box Sessions, on how to kick-start your own creativity. Started your holiday shopping? Don't forget the Satellite Sisters Shop. Start in the upper right hand corner of our website.

Here’s Julie's list of favorite sports movies. A League of Their Own This is a Satellite Sister Solid Gold choice. This movie has everything: sisters, baseball, Geena Davis, Rosie O”Donnell, Madonna in center field, and Tom Hanks telling the players,” there’s no crying in baseball”. Bend It Like Beckham A wonderful coming of age/cultural assimilation/girl power story about Jess Bijam who wants to play soccer like her idol, David Beckham but struggles to respect her traditional Indian family values. And, hello, Keira Knightley plays Jess’s friend and David Beckham makes a cute cameo. Bull Durham It’s hard to pick my favorite baseball movie but the kitchen scene with Susan Sarandon and Kevin Costner makes Bull Durham my top pick. The movie is about baseball in a very deep way but also has breezy romantic comedy. Rocky I loved the original Rocky. It’s the ultimate underdog movie and has one of the best theme songs ever. Also, Talia Shire shines in the film. Hoop Dreams An excellent documentary following two young Chicago basketball prospects trying to use their athletic talents to get to a better life. The two stars face racism, poverty, injury and other roadblocks trying to make their dreams come true. The film left me in tears. Friday Night Lights Watch the original movie with clear eyes and a full heart. Before there was Kyle Chandler as Coach Eric Taylor, there was Billy Bob Thornton and Tim McGraw in a film that follows the coach and players of a high school football team in Odessa, Texas. As a transplant, I am beginning to appreciate what Friday night football means to Texas communities. The film is as much about Texas culture as it is about football. Bad News Bears Haven’t we all been on a team for work or play where you feel like a group of misfits or outcasts? This is a movie about kids who never expect to care about competing or winning. Tatum O’Neal is the 11-year old star pitcher. Walter Matthau as an alcoholic ex-baseball pitcher turned coach is perfect. The ending involves a championship game and a big celebration for the Bears. Liz's sport movie faves include Robert Redford in Downhill Racer and Bill Murray in Caddyshack! Plus Without Limits, a great T&F movie with Billy Crudup as Steve Prefontaine and Donald Sutherland as Coach Bill Bowerman Lian names the great cycling flick Breaking Away and The Cutting Edge, a skating rom-com that does the sport proud.
