“Say yes to opportunities that maybe you don’t feel you’re ready for because other people might see something you don’t see in yourself.”

Anne O’Neil first got into sports by playing soccer on an all-boys team and proving she could compete with the best of them. Shortly after, she discovered her love of basketball and became one of the best high school athletes in the country, recruited by top coaches like the legendary Pat Summit. Anne played Division I college basketball and was an athletic and academic All-American at Iowa State.  After leading the nation in 3-point shooting, she was invited to compete in the infamous ESPN 3-Point shooting contest.  After college, she was drafted by the Sacramento Monarchs and one of the highlights of her WNBA career was having the opportunity to run up and down the court at Madison Square Garden. Following her incredible athletic career, she took her sports knowledge to TV and became a color commentator for Fox Sports.  Now, Anne is a mindset and leadership coach working with teams and executives to develop strategic game plans and goals, and has studied with some of the top mindset gurus in the country.  She is also the host and producer of the "Get Busy Livin'" podcast.
