Staying consistent & always working on my craft šŸ“

This Saturday, I had the opportunity to be apart of an important discussion with @openfairways @thestooppigeon @thephiladelphiasisters to talk how we as a community can use women’s sports growth to grow the game of women’s golf.

Y’all know I’m mainly a hooper, and the growth of women’s basketball speaks to how we all came together to push for better. This roundtable discussion gave different perspectives on what Golf is missing and how to empower more people to play. 

It’s dope to be apart of a meeting of the minds to impact the next generation of athletes.

Yesterday, I stopped by the Metro by T-mobile store to see the impact @thehoopbus is making in Philly on the second stop of their 9-city tour with Metro by T-mobile.

The Hoopbus is committed to empowering the next generation with basketball. We started the Business of Basketball to give people access to create opportunities in this industry. The Metro Hoopbus by T-mobile is planting the seed for kids everywhere to be inspired by sport

It was an honor to be invited to participate at Metro by T-mobile (Olney Store)

Yesterday, I got the opportunity to speak with students at @neumannuniversity on how to build a personal brand. 

We talked about challenging assumptions in sports media and how those assumptions can impact personal branding.

This workshop was built around creating an AUTHENTIC personal brand, and that starts with being real with yourself, knowing who are and knowing your value. 

I had an amazing time connecting with Professor Bethany Ragusa, and her students. 

A couple of em wanted to see me on the court, we might have to set that up šŸ˜­šŸ¤” Google me 😭

One thing I’ve learned is to stop equating time with where I think I should be in life.

It’s easy to get caught up in social media, watching other people’s success and questioning why you haven’t reached certain milestones yet.

But everyone’s journey looks different.

Time gives you experience, but experience alone doesn’t guarantee success. It’s what you do with that experience that matters.

Keep learning, keep growing and focus on the value you are bringing along the way.

If you want to work in basketball, college basketball should be on your radar. 

As the @ncaa landscape changes, schools are building out front offices so that they can compete with other institutions in recruiting and roster building. 

And that means new career paths are being created outside of coaching.

Comment ā€œFRONT OFFICEā€ and I’ll send additional roles colleges are starting to create.

If you’re a content creator trying to break into basketball, you might be looking in the wrong places. 

Everyone wants to create content for the NBA, WNBA or the biggest sports brands.

Meanwhile, college athletics is quietly becoming one of the most interesting places to build a career in sports content.

Schools are investing in content studios and expanding creative teams because storytelling has become part of recruiting, NIL, sponsorships, athlete branding and fan engagement.

That’s the part of the changing college sports landscape that doesn’t get talked about enough.

And a lot of times, if you don’t have access to the information, you don’t even know these opportunities exist.

That’s where we come in.

One of my favorite parts of the show is when we just have fun with the rapid-fire questions.

Outside of all the gems that get shared, I love getting to know a little more about the person behind the career.

This one with @liv_west_ still has me cracking up šŸ˜‚

COMMENT ā€˜TALENT’ if you’re trying to figure out where you fit in the basketball industry. 

We spend so much time trying to figure out what we should do that we overlook what we already do well.

The @nba has an opportunity for entrepreneurs building the future of basketball šŸ‘€šŸ€

But before you apply, there are a few things you should understand about what they’re actually looking for.

I broke down NBA Launchpad, what previous participants can teach us, and how founders should think about positioning their company on the @businessofbasketballpod substack. 

Comment ā€˜NBA’ and I’ll send you additional details.

School gets in the way of your education? šŸ‘€

@liv_west_ says sometimes school can distract you from actually preparing for the job you want. 

Her point: don’t just get the degree. Get prepared!

Do you agree?
