Gianna Marie Rahmani, often referred to as "G”, is known first and foremost for her passionate love for, and devotion to, her husband, Farhad, and two boys, Nikolas and Dominik. G is the type of person you want in your corner, as she would do anything in her power to help those in need. A Filipino-American, G immigrated to the US in 1990, when she was seven years old. She grew up in Secaucus, NJ and Ellicott City, MD, eventually moving to El Sobrante, CA where she met Farhad. There, G also started her career in property management, throughout which she would often write industry-related articles for blogs and magazines. In school and in business, G has earned the respect of her peers for her amiability, positivity, maturity, versatility, creativity, and ingenuity, resulting in accolades such as Unsung Hero, Scholar Athlete, Homecoming Queen, Rising Star, and Manager of the Year. She helped lead teams in winning seasons, smashing goals, earning awards, and reaching #1 rankings. Regardless of the endeavor, G is always on the fast track to the top as team captain, director, committee chair, or board president. As a mentor or keynote speaker, G is always looking for ways to inspire and motivate through her words and by example. Given her proven track record, it's no surprise that G retired at 39 from a highly successful 20-year career, now focusing on her and her husband's businesses and investments from warm and sunny Florida. It's no further surprise that G is pursuing her passion for writing to help others have happy and fulfilling lives and relationships. As an author, G is carrying out her personal mission to deliver a message of love through every word she speaks (or writes) and action she takes, reflective of her favorite F words – Family, Fun, Faith, Fitness, Food, Finances, Freedom, and Fulfillment. She is the other half of F&G – Farhad and Gianna. It's rare to see a couple that is as close to each other as they are. F&G do everything together and are partners in every sense of the word, from being best friends and gym buddies, to being parents of two amazing boys and co-founders of several businesses. Together, F&G hustle to The Honeymoon Life – what they've characterized as a life focused on love and adventure, and one that you don't need a vacation from. They don't shy away from taking risks and making bold moves, as long as they have a plan, have faith, and do it together. And they want to inspire others to do the same. As entrepreneurs and investors, they are the founders of Day Hustle™️ and are recognized as the original angel employers™️, helping employees to unlock their golden handcuffs of so-called job “security” and to get on the fast track to financial freedom. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/yourpodcaster/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/yourpodcaster/support
Intersections: Where Diversity, Equity and Design Meet is a Fall 2022 Series at The National Building Museum. It brings together leading Black voices in design, art, and architecture for a series of dynamic discussions about culture, equity and representation through the lens of design. In this episode, we talk to Dr. Mabel Wilson about researching anti-black spaces, the mental toll it can bring and the Memorial to Enslaved Laborers. In this episode of the podcast, Jonathan Moody, AIA, shares his personal journey and the lessons he learned about the power of possibility. Jonathan learned from his father that success in the field of architecture was attainable, despite the challenges and biases he faced. He reflects on the impact of President Obama's visit to the 2022 AIA convention, the story behind Moody Nolan receiving the AIA Firm Award and the highs and lows of his journey as a college athlete and architecture student. His story serves as an inspiration for anyone seeking to overcome challenges and achieve their goals. Launching September 16th and running through December 14th, Intersections engages nationally recognized Black architects, designers and artists in conversations focused on social justice in the built environment. Through interactive lectures and hands-on workshops, this series is designed to provoke new thinking, spark conversation, enlighten and empower. Nov 29 LARGE FIRM ROUND TABLE...AT THE INTERSECTION OF EQUITY, ADVOCACY AND INDUSTRY Dec 14 CORY HENRY...AT THE INTERSECTION OF DESIGN, DEVELOPMENT AND COMMUNITY Born into a family legacy of architecture, Jonathan grew up hearing his father—a Black architect— speak about discrimination and a lack of diversity in the profession. Nearly two decades later, Jonathan faced similar struggles in higher education while pursuing both architecture and athletics. As a Black athlete, he leveraged football to pursue architecture, an opportunity to test whether architecture was his passion or family inheritance. Upon arriving at Cornell University, Jonathan was advised that the demands of playing football and completing his B.Arch would not be possible— he could not do both successfully. Jonathan ventured to prove he could overcome adversity and model a new way of being a student-athlete of color. He played football all four years of his eligibility and became Cornell's Scholar Athlete of the Year. He later won Cornell's Bronze Alpha Rho Chi Medal, which recognizes graduating architecture students for leadership and service to the future of the profession. In 2020, Jonathan became CEO of Moody Nolan, championing the firm's growth and service to the community. Through Jonathan's leadership, Moody Nolan has expanded to 12 locations nationwide with 250 professional staff. More significant to Jonathan than the firm's growth, is the firm's impact on diverse urban communities. Jonathan believes focused efforts in these communities propel the profession toward empowering and uplifting diverse populations. Through his career, Jonathan's work is shaped by his commitment to serving the underserved. He regularly mentors at-risk youth and serves on local boards leading community development projects for low income neighborhoods. In all he does, Jonathan strives to create a more just and equitable future for all.

When Danielle Viglione was 11, she boldly told her parents that she was going to run a marathon. They compromised on a half-marathon and were surprised when their determined daughter not only finished the 13.1-mile course, but crossed the line in second place. This was just one indicator of the fierce competitor that Danielle was becoming. It became even more apparent when she shattered California state and national basketball scoring records, including several set by the legendary Cheryl Miller. Part of Danielle's scoring prowess came from her embracing the three-pointer long before it became so popular, once hitting the same number of triples in a game as Klay Thompson's NBA record (14). While playing for the University of Texas, Danielle showed that she was equally committed in the classroom, and was named Big 12 Scholar-Athlete of the Year. She went on to play for the Sacramento Monarchs in the first WNBA season and then spent nine seasons playing pro overseas. Since hanging up her sneakers, Danielle co-founded Sacramento Skills Academy and is an in-demand speaker and camp coach. In this episode, Danielle shares: How she was motivated by beating her brother and the neighborhood boys on the courtWhy her daily routine of making 500 shots was so effective What lessons she learned about hoops and life from Hall of Fame coach Jody ConradtWhen her faith and skills came together in her most memorable game How she's impacting women's basketball through Sacramento Skills Academy and Athletes UnlimitedTrain with Danielle at Sacramento Skills Academy and follow her on Instagram.

That's what high performance is to me, the ability to adapt rapidly so you can achieve your potential. There are five key pillars to creating the conditions for adaptability: sleep, exercise, mental resilience, nutrition, and community/relationships.” Dr Erik Korem “I maybe have a different concept on leadership. To me, leading is a verb. If you're leading, you're a leader. If you're swimming you're a swimmer, if you're driving you're a driver. If you're leading you're by definition a leader. I define leading as being looked to in a particular moment to make a decision or perform an action based on your unique gifts and abilities. So by that definition, everybody is a leader. All rank and role really describe is how many people are hoping you get it right when it's your turn to wear the weight.” - Clint Bruce John Danaher on high performance mindset and resilience: “Whenever you are sparring, your mind will have a given direction of focus.

That's what high performance to me is: the ability to adapt rapidly so you can achieve your potential.” - Dr. Erik Korem on high performance, performance mindset, and resilience, host of The Blue Print John Danaher on high performance mindset and resilience: “The greatest determinant of the outcome of your matches over time by a landslide is your training and lifestyle mentality. This is the high performance mindset you carry every day as you train and progress.” - John Danaher on high performance mindset and resilience _______________ Hot Pie Media is an on-demand digital audio/video entertainment network with interests primarily in the creation of original, relevant and entertaining podcasts.

He went on to play baseball at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, graduating with a degree in economics in 2009.

His life was changed during a medical emergency near the finish line of the Richmond Half Marathon in November 2018, and thanks to the quick actions of the event medical team and doctors at VCU Health, he received lifesaving care. It was a very scary situation for Phillip and his family, and he spoke about the challenges of his recovery and his commitment to staying active.Phillip reached out to a few of us at Sports Backers in the fall of 2020 to with a few updates about his active living journey and to share his appreciation for the role that Sports Backers has played in his life. It was very impactful to read and we wanted to follow up with him to learn more. The result of that discussion is this episode, which has been several months in the making. We hope you enjoy the conversation as much as we did.

Guest: Jerry Stackhouse, Vanderbilt University Head CoachIn this week's coaching conversation, Vanderbilt University head coach Jerry Stackhouse joins the podcast to defense, grading, his NBA influence, and connecting ideas for players. Entering his third season with the Commodores, Jerry Stackhouse has made a noticeable impact in turning around the Vanderbilt program. In his first season, two Commodores were selected in the NBA Draft, including lottery pick Aaron Nesmith who was chosen 14th overall by the Boston Celtics, and junior guard Saben Lee who was picked 37th overall by the Detroit Pistons. Stackhouse’s creative offensive sets enabled Nesmith to lead the nation in 3-point field goals made and 3-point field goal percentage (before a foot injury sidelined him after 14 games) and propelled Lee to three 30-point games and a second-team All-SEC selection in 2019-20. Most recently, Scotty Pippen Jr. earned All-SEC first-team honors and set the school scoring record for a sophomore in 2020-21. He finished second in the SEC in scoring (20.8 points per game) and assists (4.9), while sophomore forward Dylan Disu led the SEC in rebounding (9.2) and was named the conference’s Scholar-Athlete of the Year. Prior to Vanderbilt, Stackhouse served as an assistant coach with the Memphis Grizzlies which was preceded by two seasons as head coach of the NBA G League’s Raptors 905. As head coach of Raptors 905, Stackhouse earned NBA G League Coach of the Year honors after he steered the team to a 39-11 regular-season record and 6-1 playoff record in 2016-17, en route to the team’s first NBA G League championship. The following season, Stackhouse led the Raptors 905 to a 31-19 regular-season record and a second straight appearance in the NBA G League Finals. Prior to taking the head coaching job in the G League, Stackhouse was an assistant coach for the Toronto Raptors during the 2015-16 season. In his 18-year NBA career, Jerry Stackhouse appeared in 970 games (564 starts) for eight teams and averaged 16.9 points, 3.3 assists, 3.2 rebounds, and 31.2 minutes. A two-time All-Star with the Detroit Pistons (2000, 2001), Stackhouse posted career highs of 29.8 points (second in the NBA) during the 2000-01 season, leading the league in total points and free throws made. He reached the 2006 NBA Finals as a member of the Dallas Mavericks. After playing for legendary head coach Dean Smith and earning Sports Illustrated Player of the Year, All-America first team, and All-ACC honors at North Carolina, Stackhouse was selected by the Philadelphia 76ers with the third overall pick in the 1995 NBA Draft. He was named to the 1995-96 NBA All-Rookie first team after leading all first-year players in scoring (19.8 points). In 2011, Stackhouse launched Stackhouse Elite, an AAU program based in Atlanta, Georgia. The program captured numerous titles in the 15U, 16U, and 17U divisions.Breakdown1:00 - Shaping His Philosophy4:00 - Emphasis on Defense6:00 - Balance of Offense and Defense8:00 - Defensive Mechanism12:00 - Scouting Report Specifics18:00 - Close-Outs24:00 - Competitive Cauldron28:00 - Freeing Players33:00 - Coaching Style36:00 - Grading On and Off38:00 - Corner Threes41:00 - Ball Screens45:00 - Teaching on Weak Side47:00 - Early Tag Concept49:00 - Blocking Charge53:00 - Smartest Generation55:00 - ConclusionJerry Stackhouse’ Bio:Website: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_StackhouseTwitter: https://twitter.com/jerrystackhouseBasketball ImmersionWebsite: http://basketballimmersion.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/bballimmersion?lang=enYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/basketballimmersionFacebook: https://facebook.com/basketballimmersionBetOnline Website:Website: www.betonline.agBest in the West Video SeriesBest in the West Website: http://bestinthewestclinic.com/

He spurred the Hillcat women to the SAC Tournament Championship during their inaugural season and was named 2007 SAC Women’s Soccer Coach of the Year for his efforts. Larkin joined RSU in January 2007, tasked with being the University’s first head soccer coach.

“My doctors didn't think I could walk.” Krystal Rivers was born with multiple birth defects including tethered cord syndrome, and has pushed through her life to become one of the top performing volleyball players in the country. Rivers describes her story as one of a pure “keep going,” mindset. No one thought she would be able to walk normally, let along play sports. “My doctors always told me, ‘Do what you can,” and to me, that meant to do everything.” In 10th grade, Rivers underwent a urostomy which forced her to wear an artificial bladder on her side. Her surgery and diagnosis helped her miss the first 2 years of high school volleyball tryouts. Her junior year however, she was determined to learn. Knowing she didn't have the resources for outside help, Krystal taught herself the best she could simply by hitting a ball against a wall every day. This self-taught athlete would come in 2nd in the country in kills in the 2016 NCAA volleyball season by never letting her circumstances get the best of her. “It's about taking your destiny into your own hands and trying to control it as best as possible.” Rivers received a full academic scholarship to the University of Alabama where she would walk on to the volleyball program knowing she was going to do the best she could to help the team, no matter what position that was in. After red-shirting her freshmen year, Rivers would find out in the beginning of the 2014 spring season that she had cancer; Hodgkin lymphoma stage 3. For the next 6 months, the stud athlete would undergo weekly chemo treatment in addition to college volleyball practices, workouts, and a full class load. Her mindset was simply, “I can and I will.” “You're going to have obstacles in life, everybody is, whether they're small or large there are going to be obstacles. It's about you facing them head on and saying, ‘Okay, what's on the other side of this and how do I get there.'” On top of physical obstacles, Rivers also struggled with performance anxiety. The game was getting bigger than her and she was starting to feel everything going the wrong way. Krystal quickly realized that like everything else in her life, she could overcome this obstacle as hard as she overcame everything else.
