Speaker 4: I would say so. I'm naturally very calm. That's like

31
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,839

Speaker 3: have a name for that other person?

35
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 4: Ooh, it's funny because a long time ago I made

36
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:43,480
Speaker 4: this name up with my therapist.

37
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:45,280
Speaker 5: It's present, so I'm present.

38
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 2: Okay, good, Yeah, I love that. Yeah. Listen, I'm in

39
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 2: the mental health game now right trying to help people

40
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 2: out between their ears. For years and years, I still

41
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 2: a training people in mixed martial arts and a lot

42
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 2: of pro athletes, and I'm kind of like doing the

43
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 2: office of what you're supposed to do. I'm telling everybody

44
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 2: in that cage, on that field, on your course, wherever

45
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 2: it is, you're hurt, you're tired, you don't show it.

46
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 2: No hands on our hips. We don't show we're just

47
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 2: going to make.

48
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 3: It a horrible afternoon that person across from us.

49
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,119
Speaker 2: But then for the other twenty one hours of the day,

50
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,080
Speaker 2: I want us to really show our pain and really

51
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 2: show the vulnerability.

52
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,080
Speaker 3: And then you just came out with a new book

53
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 3: kind of do exactly that explain.

54
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 4: So my book Finding Balance, a playbook for wellness, is

55
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 4: just how this lessoned keys that I've learned through being

56
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 4: a professional athlete, through my journey, I just like you,

57
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 4: want to help people with the mental side of things,

58
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 4: So helping people understand who they are outside of what

59
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 4: they do and really identifying just their space and not

60
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 4: just being solely an athlete, but understanding like we are

61
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,359
Speaker 4: humans first, we have feelings, emotions and all of that.

62
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 5: So in order to be your best in whatever you do,

63
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 5: I think it's.

64
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 4: Important to know who you are, why are you feeling

65
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 4: the way that you're feeling, and being able to identify

66
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 4: that by just coming home within yourself.

67
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 2: What prompted you to do it? Because look, anybody's a

68
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 2: pro athlete, You're fucking different. We can curse on this podcast.

69
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 2: That's different is good. Differently to success. You're different than

70
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:13,800
Speaker 2: the rest of the world to everybody you play with

71
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 2: is different. Why you to take this step?

72
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 5: Honestly, today, I think it's purpose.

73
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 4: I'm a woman of faith, and so I know that

74
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 4: God has big plans for me, plans outside of basketball,

75
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,639
Speaker 4: and so I really feel like walking along this path,

76
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 4: writing this book was just.

77
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 5: A part of my purpose.

78
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:34,240
Speaker 4: I told my manager like, hey, I'm very passionate about wellness.

79
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 4: I want people to feel good Like I wake up

80
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 4: in the morning and I feel good. I'm ready to

81
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 4: experience life, to explore. I feel incredible, and I want

82
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 4: other people, my peers, basketball, people that play sports, whatever,

83
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 4: to feel the same way. And he was like, you

84
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 4: need to write a book. That's what people do when

85
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 4: they have an expertise in something. And so not that

86
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 4: I'm an expert or anything, but I do think that

87
00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 4: I have put in the work and the time of

88
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 4: understanding the mind and just being an athlete. I think

89
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 4: that helps too, because it's relatable for people who are

90
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 4: currently going through it and just even outside of even

91
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 4: people who have what's it called retired. I think it's

92
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,120
Speaker 4: important to know like who you are, Like I said,

93
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 4: who you are outside of what you do. Because the

94
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,600
Speaker 4: ball goes flat at some point in life and it's like, Okay,

95
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 4: what's next, what are you going to do? Who's your character?

96
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 4: So that's why I would say, that's why. I mean,

97
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:29,480
Speaker 4: it's just it's my purpose.

98
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,000
Speaker 2: I would say, it's not like it's not you who

99
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 2: plays in the w NBA. It's what's behind your ribcage

100
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,280
Speaker 2: that got you beat out millions of other girls that

101
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 2: you are right, that doesn't just leave when the uniform

102
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,719
Speaker 2: comes off. Something. How to prompted this for you to say, Okay,

103
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 2: I'm going to come forward about this?

104
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:47,960
Speaker 5: That's a really good question.

105
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:50,720
Speaker 4: I would say, I'm very diligent with the work that

106
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 4: I put in daily to feed my soul, my spirit,

107
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 4: to just do the mental work. It's so much more

108
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:01,119
Speaker 4: than just dribbling a basketball, getting on court, watching film

109
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,039
Speaker 4: and my opponents. I have to do all that stuff too,

110
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,480
Speaker 4: but I have to ground myself every single day.

111
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:06,919
Speaker 5: And like I said, I'm a woman of faith.

112
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 4: So for me, that starts with my faith, but it's

113
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,920
Speaker 4: also journaling, it's also meditating. It's just taking that time

114
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 4: to be still, which is chapter in one of my book.

115
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 4: And I think that's been so important for me and

116
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,279
Speaker 4: something that I've learned that has helped me so much.

117
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 5: And when I talk with other athletes and other people, they're.

118
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 4: Not necessarily doing that and taking that time and that

119
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:28,520
Speaker 4: self care, those practices and rituals, and so I think

120
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,240
Speaker 4: that that's where it has really stemmed from for me.

121
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 4: And like I said, just that quiet time, putting my

122
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,160
Speaker 4: phone away, taking that time for myself, coming home with

123
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 4: them myself, and listening to my spirit's, what's on my heart,

124
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,600
Speaker 4: what's going on around me, and just being self aware.

125
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 2: I guess what I'm asking is like, so for me,

126
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 2: I route on breadable and I realized saying that you're like, yeah,

127
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 2: we can kind of touch people in a different way.

128
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 2: But then I had also kind of fallen off the

129
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:56,480
Speaker 2: reservation a little bit, and I said I got to

130
00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 2: go this and help for myself and change because I

131
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:02,720
Speaker 2: was just fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, NonStop. And I

132
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 2: and I saw that in myself and said, I can't

133
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,480
Speaker 2: just teach people how to fight. I got to somehow

134
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,360
Speaker 2: teach people how to heal, and heal between my ears. Yeah,

135
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 2: So I guess for you, what I'm asking is, was

136
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,040
Speaker 2: there a time, was there a momment that you said, oh,

137
00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 2: I got to do something different than what I've been doing.

138
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 5: I think, well I was going to.

139
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,479
Speaker 4: I think I get what you're saying. So for me,

140
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,359
Speaker 4: this book is for my younger self. These are the

141
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 4: keys and the things that I wish that someone had

142
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,680
Speaker 4: told little Monique back in the day. I didn't know

143
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,840
Speaker 4: who I was outside of what I did. And I

144
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:36,359
Speaker 4: was raised by two very strong parents who raised me

145
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:39,680
Speaker 4: in just such a beautiful way and really gave me

146
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,680
Speaker 4: a great foundation. But even further than that, they weren't

147
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 4: professional athletes. They've never walked this path and journey. So

148
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 4: me being here now, I'm like, Okay, these are things

149
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 4: that keys and concepts that I wish I knew at fourteen.

150
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,440
Speaker 4: I wish I knew even younger than that. And so

151
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:58,480
Speaker 4: that's where finding Balance comes from. Is that answering your question?

152
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 2: That's kind of like it. Yeah, So so give me

153
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 2: you try to jump in a chapter one there and

154
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:07,719
Speaker 2: I cut you off. What the ADHD and me does? Yeah,

155
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 2: tell me your if you're going to talk to one

156
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 2: of your teammates, one of your opponents and say this

157
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 2: is what it is. This is the magic of finding balance.

158
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 5: Well, let's start with chapter one.

159
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 4: Finding balance is taking that time for self every single day,

160
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,680
Speaker 4: and it's going to look different every single day. I

161
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 4: don't wake up every morning and get to do everything

162
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 4: on my morning routine list. Sometimes I have to do

163
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 4: a couple things. I might be late to practice, and

164
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 4: I'm like, okay, I can only do a couple of

165
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 4: things right now. Maybe I can do some more later.

166
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,240
Speaker 4: But it's just taking that time to be still. I

167
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 4: think that's so important and something that we don't do.

168
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:43,119
Speaker 4: It's taking breaks from your phone and being outside, being

169
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 4: in nature.

170
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 2: There was a point that you realize, Okay, I have

171
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 2: to start being still. Is there something like like when

172
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 2: did you learn this?

173
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 5: That's a good question.

174
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 4: I would say when I became a pro so my

175
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 4: rookie year, I was searching for knowledge, searching how to

176
00:07:58,760 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 4: feed my mind.

177
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 5: So I'm like listening to podcasts.

178
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 4: And different sound bites on YouTube and I'm like, Okay,

179
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 4: these are things that I've never been taught as an athlete.

180
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 4: I've been taught how to shoot a basketball, but I've

181
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 4: never been taught.

182
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 5: How to train my mind.

183
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 4: And that's what that's that was fueling me. I'm like,

184
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 4: this is soul food. Okay, cool? Where can I get

185
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 4: more of this, and so the more that I kept

186
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 4: doing it, then I started mastering my morning routine. And

187
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 4: I have a long way to go, Like I know

188
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 4: it's going to only continue to evolve, and so that's

189
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 4: the exciting part.

190
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 5: But it's been a process and it will continue to

191
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 5: be a process.

192
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll work in progress.

193
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 5: Absolutely, Yes, Exactly.

194
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 2: How long is your morning routine take?

195
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:41,640
Speaker 5: Ideally perfect day, I need like an hour and a

196
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 5: half from my morning routine.

197
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 3: And you noticed a huge difference when you don't do it,

198
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:47,720
Speaker 3: So I.

199
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, if I don't do at least one thing within

200
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 4: my morning routine, even if it's just not making up

201
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 4: my bed or my skincare routine or just like getting

202
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,679
Speaker 4: my hair nice for the morning, like whatever, whatever, it

203
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 4: might be, just one little stuff.

204
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 5: Thing I noticed, I just get up and go. Like

205
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:04,400
Speaker 5: for the rest of the day.

206
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 4: I do feel like I'm just kind of stimulated and

207
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:08,719
Speaker 4: not calm and balanced.

208
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:11,559
Speaker 3: So give us what your morning routine has if you can,

209
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 3: okay in right elevator pitch.

210
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:18,559
Speaker 4: Yes, money routine, wake up, make up my bed, skincare,

211
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:22,440
Speaker 4: self care, make sure I'm looking good, meditate, read my

212
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:26,720
Speaker 4: Bible journal, make a really good breakfast, and then I'm

213
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:27,240
Speaker 4: out the door.

214
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:28,320
Speaker 2: How long you.

215
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 5: Meditate for ten minutes?

216
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 3: Is it guided or is it transcendental?

217
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 2: Or is it what kind of meditation is it?

218
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 5: It depends.

219
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,960
Speaker 4: Sometimes I'll do guide it. Sometimes I just like to

220
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 4: sit in silence. Sometimes I'll listen to like soundbath or

221
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:44,560
Speaker 4: like a meditation meditation type of music.

222
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:45,600
Speaker 5: It just depends.

223
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:47,839
Speaker 2: You kind of lead your teammates and things.

224
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:53,199
Speaker 4: Now I have I've done guided meditations and I'm a yogi,

225
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 4: so yoga with them and different things like that.

226
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 2: So, yeah, what are you hoping to get from your book?

227
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:01,520
Speaker 4: I want people to to read my book and have

228
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 4: a sense of I got this, a better sense of

229
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,440
Speaker 4: understanding of who they are, like I said, outside of

230
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 4: what they do, and just understanding themselves more. That's what

231
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 4: I really hope my book will convey to people.

232
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,480
Speaker 2: So my morning meditation or my morning routine, it goes

233
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 2: about fifteen minutes. I've said this on this podcast because

234
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,719
Speaker 2: nothing good happens on this cell phone, right, Like, none

235
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 2: of us are actually have won two billion dollars as

236
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:28,959
Speaker 2: the Nigerian prints. It doesn't really happen in real life.

237
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 2: We're not going to wake up to that, right, So

238
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:34,199
Speaker 2: it's not a problems. And I used to just immediately

239
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,680
Speaker 2: wake up to that the problems it's brutal. So now

240
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 2: I get up. I will do when I do it

241
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 2: with my beautiful fiance Rosie Tennyson, if I have a

242
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 2: partner to do with with, we'll do three songs of

243
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:51,320
Speaker 2: breathwork of different breath work, and I'll basically put on

244
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,200
Speaker 2: songs so it goes about ten minutes, and then we

245
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:58,680
Speaker 2: will do a meditation of what we're grateful for, and

246
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:02,120
Speaker 2: we'll write down a brat list of ten things or

247
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 2: grateful for from the day before. And it was so

248
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 2: hard when I originally learned the gratitude list, Like it

249
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 2: was so hard.

250
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 3: To a guy like me to was so self low

251
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 3: there to be grateful for anything.

252
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:14,840
Speaker 2: Right, So now we learn how to do it. And

253
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:19,240
Speaker 2: then this week actually introduced saying out loud like hold

254
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:23,560
Speaker 2: the games and saying thank you God, I'm grateful for this. Yes,

255
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 2: And we do that together and then we say a

256
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:27,680
Speaker 2: quicker and then we look at our phones.

257
00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:30,719
Speaker 4: I like that, and I like that you said you

258
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:33,440
Speaker 4: wait to be on your phone. I think that's very

259
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 4: important that I often apply as well.

260
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 5: And I do want to add this. So for the gratitude.

261
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 4: Something that I heard this week, actually, I think it

262
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 4: was on a Joyce Meyer podcast. She had said, imagine

263
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,079
Speaker 4: not saying thank you for the things that you are

264
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 4: actually grateful for and then being gone tomorrow. That hit

265
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,200
Speaker 4: me hard, Like, imagine not being grateful for I don't

266
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:56,320
Speaker 4: know my legs, my arms, the fact that I'm able

267
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:58,280
Speaker 4: to breathe and I'm healthy, the little things that we

268
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 4: take for granted, and they're gone tomorrow. So when when

269
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:03,640
Speaker 4: I heard that, I was like, wow, I can do

270
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 4: better being grateful.

271
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,440
Speaker 2: I learned how to do this gratitude list in Thailand

272
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 2: from this Timelnk and it was wild. I went on

273
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 2: like a thirty five day mind body spirit journey. I

274
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,959
Speaker 2: fought my muay Thai in the jungle, and I did

275
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 2: breath work and meditation and I did you know eight

276
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:23,199
Speaker 2: so clean, didn't drink. But when they first told me

277
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:24,679
Speaker 2: to do this, hey, we want you to write down

278
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 2: one hundred things your grip for. It took me a

279
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 2: week and my life is great. It's incredible, right, it

280
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 2: was so. But then you think you talk about things

281
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,679
Speaker 2: like you just brought up your legs, your eyesight, your

282
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 2: arms and things we don't know really how to be

283
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:41,960
Speaker 2: grateful for that. We do take for granted.

284
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 4: Well, it sounds like you've done a lot of work

285
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,319
Speaker 4: now to where you could probably write two lists to

286
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 4: one hundred list.

287
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:50,360
Speaker 2: I'm about four hundred in now, you kidd.

288
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,679
Speaker 5: Make I love it. I love it.

289
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 2: Yeah. But I like that you say that because it

290
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 2: was like it was hard for me. And they're like, yeah,

291
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,319
Speaker 2: you could put things out, are materialistic, You're good. It's like,

292
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:03,840
Speaker 2: whatever makes you feel grateful, Yes, that's for you, right

293
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,200
Speaker 2: down on your list. Yeah, And it's a much better

294
00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:08,719
Speaker 2: way to wake up grateful than to look on her

295
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,200
Speaker 2: phone and wake up with problems.

296
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 5: I totally agree.

297
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,840
Speaker 3: Give me some of the other big lessons you're trying

298
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:16,680
Speaker 3: to teach us with your book.

299
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:18,880
Speaker 4: I don't want to spoil too much. I want people

300
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 4: to read the book. It's a very quick read.

301
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:23,840
Speaker 2: But some of the things you got to spoil us,

302
00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:25,040
Speaker 2: trust me, you'll still read it.

303
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:26,520
Speaker 5: I got you, I got you.

304
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 4: Some of the things that some of the concepts that

305
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 4: I include in my book are just asking yourself tough

306
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,360
Speaker 4: questions like why do I dress the way that I dress?

307
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 5: Why do I listen to the music that I listen to.

308
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:40,200
Speaker 5: Do I really like this stuff?

309
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:43,280
Speaker 4: Or is this just in my environment and the people

310
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 4: around me listen to these types of things or dress

311
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 4: this type of way. Those are questions that I had

312
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 4: to ask myself because I wasn't being stimulated by the

313
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 4: music that I was listening to.

314
00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:54,720
Speaker 5: In the locker room with my teammates. It just wasn't

315
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:55,080
Speaker 5: for me.

316
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:57,040
Speaker 4: I am an R and B gurly, and that's something

317
00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:00,200
Speaker 4: that I'm very comfortable with now, but at a certain

318
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 4: I would try to hide aspects of myself because I

319
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:06,600
Speaker 4: noticed that people around me maybe just weren't like that,

320
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 4: and so I realized that there's some things about me

321
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 4: that are different. So that's one thing like again asking

322
00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 4: yourself those tough questions, kind of just deep diving and

323
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:16,240
Speaker 4: really getting to know who you are.

324
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:18,720
Speaker 2: I want to hit you a little bit on your

325
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:22,000
Speaker 2: your career. What makes you different than everybody else out there?

326
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 5: Basketball wise or basketball wise?

327
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 2: Yeah?

328
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:26,480
Speaker 5: Basketball wise?

329
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 2: Yeah?

330
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 4: What makes you say that female athletic player in the WNBA?

331
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 4: And no, I did not give myself that title, but

332
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 4: I will take it. I am notably super athletics super

333
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:42,239
Speaker 4: athlete crazy jeans, and I know that that's my separator,

334
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,640
Speaker 4: and there's something about being in the WNBA. There's only

335
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:46,600
Speaker 4: one hundred and forty four of us. Everyone has to

336
00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 4: be a specialist. That's something. My specialty is my athleticism

337
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 4: and the fact that I'm able to rebound like crazy.

338
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 2: Was that something you think you were born with or

339
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 2: something you were taught?

340
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,400
Speaker 4: Definitely born with. I mean, I have the work ethics,

341
00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:02,120
Speaker 4: so I think that helps as well. But my dad

342
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 4: would always tell me, like my ability to run, John

343
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:07,560
Speaker 4: to just be athletic. He would always say, that's your gift,

344
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 4: that's your gift. When I was young, I didn't understand that.

345
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 4: But now I'm like, I see what you mean.

346
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 2: Now that you're in a mindfulness, are you able to

347
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,800
Speaker 2: I've dealt with this with fighters and sometimes guys. Sometimes

348
00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 2: I get real religious and they'll go, man, I'm kind

349
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 2: of feeling bad what I'm doing in there, and I'm like, no, no, no,

350
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 2: You're allowed to be two different chaps. It's fine, right.

351
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:31,280
Speaker 2: Are you able to be a total gangster out there

352
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 2: and still know Okay, I'm still mindful by doing this.

353
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:38,000
Speaker 5: Dude, I am a gospel gangster for I love that.

354
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:42,560
Speaker 5: I love that I know that what I'm doing is

355
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:43,160
Speaker 5: on purpose.

356
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 4: I know that I'm serving the Lord, and I'm always

357
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:50,120
Speaker 4: asking God for that discernment to feel like I am

358
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 4: walking in alignment with the purpose that He has me

359
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 4: here for.

360
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 2: So you know, if you're just out there just throwing elbows, hey,

361
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 2: it's part of it. So I am.

362
00:15:57,800 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 5: No, I'm not a starting player. That's different.

363
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 2: It's not dirty. You're doing what you gotta don.

364
00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:06,119
Speaker 4: Man, throwing elbows, I would say throwing elbows is dirty.

365
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 2: That's well, if your rebounding, you just they just gotta

366
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 2: get out of your way.

367
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, there's an art to it.

368
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's an art to it, absolutely absolute art to it.

369
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 5: So if you're doing it the artful way, that's okay.

370
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 5: But if you're just out here trying to hurt people,

371
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 5: that's no.

372
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:21,560
Speaker 2: No, I didn't. I didn't see that.

373
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:23,720
Speaker 3: You know, I talked to a lot of teams about

374
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:25,560
Speaker 3: mental health, and I don't know how it is.

375
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:28,080
Speaker 2: In the the w NBA, like the NFL, they take

376
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:30,600
Speaker 2: their therapist and they kind of usually put him or

377
00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 2: upstairs or away or almost make it where it's like, ah, man,

378
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 2: you can really go up there, and I want them

379
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 2: next to the cafeteria or next to the weight room,

380
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:42,040
Speaker 2: and you know you got to take your mental health

381
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:44,360
Speaker 2: and attack it the same way you do your physical health.

382
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 2: What's it like in the w n B A.

383
00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 4: I would say it's the same way to whereas like,

384
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 4: we have the option to address our mental health in

385
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 4: any way that we want. We have the resources. Whether

386
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,240
Speaker 4: you tap in with it or not is up to you.

387
00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 4: That's a part of being a pro. That's why I

388
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 4: love being a pro, because no one can hold your

389
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 4: hand through it. In college, people will hold your hand.

390
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 4: It's a lot more micromanaged. But as a pro, what

391
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:09,440
Speaker 4: do you need? I feel like it would help everyone

392
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,120
Speaker 4: who is a professional athlete to happen with their mind,

393
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:14,280
Speaker 4: but not everyone feels like they need that. And I

394
00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 4: think people at different points in their journey might realize

395
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:18,320
Speaker 4: they need it.

396
00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 5: Someone might be seven years in and say, you.

397
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:22,800
Speaker 4: Know what, let me start tappening with my mind because

398
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,879
Speaker 4: I realize it's more mental than physical, someone like me

399
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 4: who realized this as a rookie. We all hit it

400
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:31,600
Speaker 4: at different stages, but the resources are definitely there.

401
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 2: They all need it. It's just that again, it's that

402
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,960
Speaker 2: stigma still, and I think people like you, people like

403
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,600
Speaker 2: mess help are helping them break down. Have you seen

404
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,080
Speaker 2: a turn? And how many of your teammates or people

405
00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 2: in the league start to approach you and say, hey, it'

406
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 2: see you're starting to talk about this and I like

407
00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:49,320
Speaker 2: to talk to about a little bit more.

408
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 5: I would say, yeah.

409
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:53,520
Speaker 4: I think a lot of people have been impressed because

410
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 4: at first I've never been so just open about mental

411
00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 4: health and having these conversations, and so I think a

412
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:01,399
Speaker 4: lot of people are like, wow, I didn't know that

413
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:04,200
Speaker 4: you were in this space. And when they do read

414
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,879
Speaker 4: my book and just even see it and feel it

415
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:09,000
Speaker 4: and just kind of like skin through it, they're like wow,

416
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:10,639
Speaker 4: like this is impressive.

417
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:12,960
Speaker 2: Do your coaches come to you about it a.

418
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 5: Little bit in the off season. It's season.

419
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,399
Speaker 4: I see that their focus locked in as we should be.

420
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 4: But in the off season, they too were just like wow,

421
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:23,520
Speaker 4: this is this is very impressive. My head coach actually

422
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 4: she was a player just a few years ago, and

423
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:28,879
Speaker 4: so she's like, you know what, these weren't conversations that

424
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:30,480
Speaker 4: were being had when I was a player, So I

425
00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:31,280
Speaker 4: think that's pretty cool.

426
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,639
Speaker 2: And also take care of her because like our leaders

427
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:36,400
Speaker 2: got to take everybody else, but who texts care of them.

428
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:38,960
Speaker 2: They got to take on all your problems, right, but

429
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:42,200
Speaker 2: no one makes sure that they're okay. And they sign

430
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 2: up to coach sports they didn't sign up to, you know,

431
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,199
Speaker 2: to be a mental health coach, and sometimes it just

432
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,040
Speaker 2: gets on their shoulders a lot. Yeah.

433
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:50,679
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a really good point.

434
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:52,639
Speaker 2: What do you hope when all is sending down with

435
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 2: your book and then your next book and your book

436
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 2: after that, Like, where do you hope that this path

437
00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:57,199
Speaker 2: takes you?

438
00:18:57,800 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 5: That's a great question.

439
00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:02,280
Speaker 4: That's something that I'm praying on because I was twenty

440
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:04,399
Speaker 4: four to twenty five when I started writing this book,

441
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:06,359
Speaker 4: and I did not necessarily want to.

442
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:07,639
Speaker 5: Like I said, I was, I'm.

443
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 4: Walking on purpose, and I'm asking God for that discernment

444
00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:15,840
Speaker 4: and so I'm leaving it. I'm being a steward and

445
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,240
Speaker 4: I'm leaving it in his hands and I'm praying that

446
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,840
Speaker 4: what he wants his will to be done with this book.

447
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:23,360
Speaker 2: And by the way, like one of the things I

448
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:25,199
Speaker 2: bring up with my book to get me through my

449
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:27,880
Speaker 2: depression anxiety is being of service. And that's what you're

450
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,640
Speaker 2: doing whether you have like so, don't look at yourselves.

451
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:33,320
Speaker 2: You're being of service and that's the great part of this.

452
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:37,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's something that I'm still having to learn. It's

453
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:40,600
Speaker 4: not about numbers or how many I'm selling.

454
00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:41,480
Speaker 5: It's okay.

455
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,680
Speaker 4: One person said they were impacted and they felt great.

456
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,520
Speaker 4: It's been more than one, but just it just means

457
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 4: a lot. It's touching the right people, and I know

458
00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:51,360
Speaker 4: that it'll be in the right people's.

459
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 2: Hands for sure. Let that feel you out. You know.

460
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:55,199
Speaker 2: I kind of looked at it early on too, like,

461
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,920
Speaker 2: oh my gosh, for myself where I'm in, and yet

462
00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:00,640
Speaker 2: people were reaching out saying, Wow, you save my life.

463
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,160
Speaker 2: If you inspired me to change my life. You gave

464
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,440
Speaker 2: me the words to have the conversation with my son

465
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:09,879
Speaker 2: or daughter, and I wasn't necessarily letting it sink in

466
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:13,399
Speaker 2: the way it should have. Each one is sunk in

467
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:15,960
Speaker 2: not my quest for success.

468
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,399
Speaker 5: Right, Wow, thank you for that. Now I received that
