HEY NOW Podcast

In this episode of the Hey Now Podcast we got a chance to sit down with Shagari Alleyne. If you were a Hooper from New York, you defiantly know the name. It was a pleasure getting a chance to sit down with Shagari. We got a chance to talk about sports of course but most importantly we got a chance to touch on his journey. I felt blessed having Shagari sit down with us because he does not do many sit down with people. So to know that we got a chance to discuss a few things such as how he got in basketball and how he ultimately ended up at Rice High school. We got a chance to discuss some of his teammates as well as learn that basketball was just a stepping stone to really show how great Shagari Alleyne is. So again I’m just glad he took the time out to come kick it with us!!!!!!

On this episode of the Hey Now Podcast, we got a chance to sit down with Psychotherapist Anabella Bergamsco. In this episode we were able to unpack a few things. Some of the things that we discussed in this episode surrounded around the issues concerning mental health as well as of the stigma that therapy is not for men. We also touched on how therapy can help with athletes deal with the day to day pressure that comes with being an athlete. This episode really allowed us to get some things in the air as well as giving better perspectives on the benefits that therapy can have. We spend so much time noticing the ugly side of things we forget how beautiful things really are. I really believe therapy helps bring that side out of you as well as understanding.

Well from my experience.

So enough of me. Enjoy.. HEY NOW

On this episode of the Hey Now Podcast we got the chance to sit down and have a conversation with Seton Hall Women's Assistant Coach Marissa Flagg. We got a chance to talk about the NBA, Lebron and Kobe as well as touched on a little bit of the Drake and Pusha T saga. On the 21:00 mark we begin the journey of Marissa Flagg who was one of the top players coming out of college. Her experience and her story really allows players to connect with her. This episode is full of gems, not only from a coaches perspective but as someone who played the game and was able to overcome some hurdle in the process. We need more coaches like her!!!
