Join us for the 11th and final episode of our VIP season as we sit down with Lanny Smith,  former Sacramento Kings NBA player,  and founder of Actively Black and Active Faith.

Lanny shares his inspiring journey from the NBA to entrepreneurship after a career-ending injury shattered his dreams just 33 days into his NBA career. He discusses how his Christian faith and the color of his skin have influenced his business ventures, which have garnered partnership with prominent figures like Steph Curry and more.

Discover how Lanny successfully transitioned to entrepreneurship without any prior experience or degree, building a million-dollar brand from his mother’s house. Don't miss this insightful conversation!
