Guest Daryn Kagan on Women Entrepreneurs - The Secrets of Success

Guest Daryn Kagan successfully transitioned from lead news anchor to entrepreneur. Daryn was a sports and news anchor with CNN from 1994-2006. She was one of a few women on the national stage covering sports on television, reporting live from events from 1994-1997 that included the Super Bowl, the NBA playoffs, and international figure skating from Russia. At the end of 1997, Daryn became one of CNN's main news anchors, serving as the mid-morning anchor for almost a decade. In this capacity, she traveled the world to report on the stories that have shaped our world today, including war zones in the Middle East, across Africa with U2's Bono, Washington during the DC sniper attacks, and from numerous Academy Awards red carpet events in Los Angeles. Daryn was also the main news anchor on the air live the morning of Sept. 11, 2001, and she brought that news of terrorist attacks against the U.S. to millions around the world. Daryn had a dream of creating a media company to covering the types of stories she enjoyed most during her career in TV news -- hopeful news stories that inspire. Daryn took a leap of faith and launched what has become the award-winning www.DarynKagan.com as the base of her company a mere six weeks after leaving CNN on October 1, 2006. In April 2008, Meredith Books released Daryn's first book, "What's Possible! 50 True Stories of People Who Dared To Dream They Could Make a Difference," which is the first in a series of books that shares stories of everyday people who overcame obstacles (financial, health, etc.) to achieve their dreams.
