The conversation explores the concept of progress as the only goal and how it applies to athletes, specifically in the context of basketball. I ask him how hoopers can manage the ebbs and flows of games, staying grounded in the middle of games, and the role of visualization, meditation, and self talk in enhancing performance. I get the details of how meditation in helping athletes achieve a flow state and the importance of progressive overload in meditation practice. The conversation emphasizes the need for athletes to embrace both success and failure as learning opportunities and to find ways to reset and refocus during games.

Tina Stephens, a professional basketball player and owner of Top Tier The Brand, discusses her journey from dreaming of being a basketball player and entrepreneur as a child to actually achieving those goals. Tina shares her experiences with mental health and how she overcame challenges in her life like losing a family member at a young age but still performing on the court.  Her mental space during this time was tough, as she was also dealing with the pressures of being a student-athlete and wanting to succeed. She emphasizes the importance of giving oneself grace and allowing time for healing. She believes that mental health resources should be more accessible to athletes and that taking mental health days should be normalized.
From all of this is what gave birth to her brand, Top Tier The Brand, which promotes a top-tier mindset and lifestyle.

Joel Harrison talks with about his transition from coaching at the Division II level to the Division I level. It comes with new challenges like recruiting for one school while transitioning to another, and the awkwardness of leaving his current players behind, his experience of moving to a new city and the emotional toll it took on him. 
We end up expressing our admiration for Dawn Staley and highlight other great  coaches in women's basketball, particularly Geno Auriemma, Dawn Staley, and Tara VanDerveer. It emphasizes the importance of recognizing their accomplishments and the impact they have had on the game. 
The discussion also touches on the growth and potential of the WNBA, with a focus on the need for expansion to increase accessibility and promote the game in different regions (hopefully Birmingham). The conversation also touches on the selection process for national teams and the dominance of the US women's basketball team in the Olympics.

The concept of self-harm through procrastination and lack of urgency is very real. Both can delay personal growth and hinder progress towards goals like being on the team. I have my own personal experiences of procrastination and my regrets that comes with it. Change this us and your future self will thank you
