Don’t stop being a good person just because someone else forgot how.

Right before I hit the stage, someone said to me: “It’s been a long month for you.” He was wrong. I mean, it’s been a long month, just not in the way he meant. I’ve spent 20 of the last 25 days in a hotel, traveling for speaking gigs and coaching my daughters’ basketball teams.

High road. Always. Even when you’re being used. Even when they talk behind your back. Even when the lies are loud. The high road isn’t weakness. It’s leadership. Stay elevated. Stay unshakable.

It's been fun seeing the evolution of Ellie Deprey offensive game. Always a sniper who has become a balanced attacker with strong drives, and two-way competitor. Scholarship talent who's going to be a gem to the school that lands her.

Super grateful to get Honorable Mention for the 2025 Select 40 17U Tournament! I’m thankful to play with girls who pass, screen, defend, and make me better every day. Ending AAU with a championship was the best part! Select Events Basketball Wisconsin Lakers  ❤️🏀

Hoop Herald If your role model got up for something they HAD to do, you better show up for something you GET to do. Respect the grind. Honor the example. Earn it daily.

Today at the pool with my fam, I watched a 2-year-old swimming with her mom, maybe for the first time. Her mom gently led her into deeper water, step by step… until the girl started to cry. She climbed out of the pool, found her towel, wiped her eyes, took a minute... and then?

Goal setting is cute. Goal getting changes your life. Swap the S for a G. And go!

College visits aren’t a test. They’re a chance. Breathe. Be curious. Be real. You’re not just picking a school. You’re choosing the team, culture, and future that fits you.

The ball won’t bounce forever. So take in the gym, the people, the moments. You don’t get to do this twice. Just something to think about.

Saw this license plate the other day: GIV2FLY At first, I thought it was just clever. But then it hit me... That’s leadership! Leadership is about giving so others can fly. Giving your time. Giving your trust. Giving your support. Not to lift yourself up, but to lift others.

Day two of our Young Bankers of Nebraska conference featured insights from Derek Deprey and Aaron Davis. Derek Deprey emphasized that everyone has the power to be an everyday leader, and Aaron Davis shared the importance of mentorship on professional and personal development. 1/2

You’re not better than the people you lead. Your job is to clear the path, lift them up, and give them every chance to win.

Words can't describe how much we will miss Coach Ken. I was lucky enough to coach with him for 7 years. Was robbed of more time with him. Laker Family lost a great coach and family man. I also lost a friend. Lisa, Jordan, Calli, Marissa and Mona were thinking of you and here if

RIP Coach Ken Fenske 💜💛 Nine months ago, I wrote Ken Fenske’s Playbook of Life, a collection of 10 lessons he taught that reached far beyond basketball. I didn’t know then how much those lessons would mean. To the world, Ken might have been “just an assistant coach” or a

Until it’s your moment, make someone else’s moment shine brighter.

Wauwatosa East football has kicked off their fundraiser! This year has some extra importance. Last week their field got completely flooded by the rain & is no longer usable, along with a ton of equipment. Please consider sharing to help them out! app.launchfundraising.com/FundraiserHome…

Hard to believe our baby Mia is 14 today. 🎂 A decade ago, you were holding my hand at school drop-off and somehow managing to literally blind me with Doc McStuffins plastic scissors (my cornea still hasn’t forgiven you 😂🤷‍♂️). Life was all about gymnastics leotards and swim

4 Misses, 1 Mindset: What Ray Allen Taught Me About Leadership Back in the 2001-2002 season, I was an intern for the Milwaukee Milwaukee Bucks, editing game film in the second-level editing room at the old St. Francis practice facility. The room had a window overlooking the court… so

Proud of you, Maddie! 💙💛 Coaching you the past two years with the Wisconsin Lakers has been a blast. You’re the glue that every team needs... great shooter, relentless defender on and off the ball, and the type of selfless player who would run through a wall for her coaches and
