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. She encourages individuals to invest in themselves and choose to overcome challenges, reminding them that trouble never lasts and that they have the power to unlock the next level of their lives.

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.

I address 10 common misconceptions and misunderstandings about basketball training and things related to trainers. Things like that trainers are not miracle workers and that long-term success takes time. Consistency in training is crucial for development, and understanding the cost and quality of trainers. This is to help build understanding for skills trainers, performance/strength and conditioning coaches and those that do both like me.

If you're a coach let me know what else i missed. If you're a parents or player let me know which one helps you the most.

It's important to stop your self-harm, not just physically but also mentally and emotionally. I highlight the need to have the same sense of urgency when it comes to how we talk to ourselves and think about ourselves. Negative self-talk and low self-esteem can have long-term consequences on our future selves. I encourage you to take better care of yourselves mentally and emotionally to become better individuals.
