TC Women’s Conference —- a TIME was had! 💜

God moved exactly as He was supposed to. Hearts were touched, women were encouraged, and lives were transformed.

We came expecting, and God showed up! 🙌🏾

And just like that… a new school year begins! 📚✏️❤️

Praying over our children as they step into new classrooms, new experiences, and new opportunities. May God protect them, guide their steps, surround them with the right people, and give them confidence and courage throughout this school year. 🙏🏾

“For He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.” — Psalm 91:11

Here’s to a blessed, safe, and successful school year! 🍎

It’s the little things that remind you why you do what you do. 🥹❤️

Unpacking this beautiful care basket gifted to me by one of my students, Ciara, and her mom after our fundraiser. So thoughtful, so intentional, and such a beautiful reminder that the love we pour into our young people has a way of coming back to us. ❤️

My heart is full. Thank you, Ciara & Shana! 🥹

My heart is full tonight. ❤️

To every single person who came out today to support WE Lead Sports, THANK YOU!

Whether you volunteered, donated, brought your family, purchased something, helped behind the scenes, or simply showed up because you believe in what we’re building, I am truly grateful.

There’s so much work that goes into a day like today, but seeing our athletes smiling, families connecting, and our community coming together reminds me why we keep going.

We’re still growing, learning, and building, but what God is allowing us to create through WE Lead Sports is truly special.

Thank you to everyone who continues to be in our corner and pour into the young people we serve.

My body is tired 😂, but my heart is incredibly grateful.❤️ by @michelleokore1

What A JOURNEY!! ❤️🎾

Six years ago, I made the difficult decision to step away from the tennis world after some painful experiences and disappointments. I poured myself into other areas of youth development, but tennis never really left my heart.

Eventually, I found my way back through coaching and building my own organization. But I quickly realized something was still missing: COMMUNITY.

Becoming a member of the USTA Women in Coaching Cohort has been a blessing I didn’t know I needed. I entered quietly and cautiously, but what I found was GENUINE SISTERHOOD. Women encouraging, supporting, and genuinely wanting to see one another succeed.

This weekend at Coaches Open 2026 brought it all full circle, including meeting Billie Jean King, a woman I’ve admired for most of my life. 🥹🎾

So grateful to Megan Rose, @nancy.abrams.127, Skylar Waller, and everyone who has poured into this experience.

From walking away from tennis, to finding my way back and this time, not having to walk alone. ❤️
