    There’s something special about a girl who laces up her sneakers, steps onto the court, and finds her confidence in the rhythm of the game. But behind every young athlete taking that first step is a sisterhood—a legacy of women who’ve paved the way, battled through obstacles, and emerged stronger. The #GirlsInSportsProject isn’t just about the game. It’s about opportunity. It’s about empowerment. It’s about ensuring that every girl who wants to play, can.

    Ballin’ in the Park: Reviving Play, Strengthening Community

    Ballin’ in the Park is more than just a sports event—it’s a movement to bring youth back to the parks, restore a sense of community, and inspire the next generation through the power of play. Created as a response to the fading presence of kids playing outside, this initiative provides a safe, structured, and engaging environment where young athletes can develop their skills, build confidence, and form lasting connections.

“…The time I spend alone in the gym will reflect the results I will receive playing in a competitive game. For me, that means after a 2-hour practice getting up extra shots or going to the weight room when no one else wants to go with me.”

The game is simple. The pressure isn’t. #choosel The game is simple. The pressure isn’t. #chooselove 

Had a great opportunity to spread some love and  truth to a special group of young aspiring athletes before they jumped into playoff mode. We locked in on the ‘Simplicity’ of the game + the truth behind the pressure.  #performanceanxiety #grace + #time 

Thank you Coach Jenny @nvdgirlsbball for inviting me out to inspire her squad!! They have been killing it this season and Coach is pulling out all the stops to focus on the common goal —Championship! Go get it ladies!!! 

🚨 New Blog Post — 
The pressure doesn’t start with them — it comes from the adults around them. 

So here’s the challenge: before pushing, before planning, before expecting— pause. Ask them. Listen. Let their voice guide the process.

Your energy sets the tone for everything you pursu Your energy sets the tone for everything you pursue. Energy is everything. It’s not just what you do—it’s how you do it. Every practice, every rep, every decision should reflect your passion, purpose, and commitment.

As an elite coach, I’ve learned that greatness isn’t reserved for game day—it’s built in the quiet moments when you choose to give your all.

Whether leading a team, running an organization, or mentoring the next generation, the way you show up matters. Every moment is an opportunity to bring your best self and inspire others to do the same.

Thank you to Coach Amanda Keenan @jchs_girls_hoops for inviting me out to inspire her girls!! I absolutely enjoyed every minute with this group… what a great group of young ladies!!!
