INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — WISH-TV is celebrating women’s history all month long. We spotlight one iconic woman who wears hats in the community. She is making an impact on the Circle City, both on the court and off.

We are talking about former WNBA star and Indiana Fever legend Tamika Catchings. Catchings is the owner of a quaint café nestled in the near north side area of downtown Indianapolis, where you will find carefully crafted teas, flavorful food, and the illustrious owner of Tea’s Me Café. It’s a title she says she is fortunate to have earned.

Catchings says she is blessed. Her blessings includes a stellar WNBA career with the Indiana Fever, a WNBA championship in 2012 with the Fever, numerous All-Star appearances, and several WNBA defensive player of the year.

Accolades, WNBA MVP, and countless other accomplishments. Through it all, Tamika says, the people in Indianapolis are the main reason for her longevity, and why she decided to make the Circle City her permanent home.

She is quoted as saying, “I love the community. I love how people work together. I love what we have been able to do with the community and I love it here.”

Loving it so much that she added to the community by opening her own business. A literal dream that became reality
