Dang, time flies. The year 2021 is over, and 2022 is here. Another year has come and gone!

For those of you who have been here since last year, I really appreciate your support!

It’s the time of the year again for some much-needed reflection and introspection to set the right tone for the new year!

I have been busy coming up with my goals for 2022, and I wanted to share the biggest ones with you.

The first goal I have for 2022 is get my children's book published (and people actually buy it).

I finished my book in December. It is the semi-biographical tale of me and my guardian basketball angel, Tangie. Focusing on my childhood ‘failure’ in cheerleading and how the experience led me to be a WNBA basketball player, the story is centered on faith and trusting in God’s plan. I am really excited for other people hear my story and even to relate to it.

The second goal I have for 2022 is to have a successful podcast.

I am starting a podcast called The Fierce Athlete Podcast, catering to female athletes. I'm actually a little nervous because this is something I never done before and to be honest, I don't like to talk. I hope to broach topics that I normally don't get to talk about on my social media platforms. I'm more silly than serious there.

The third goal I have for 2022 is to personally help 150 female athletes.

I am really passionate about exposing young women to the sports psychology tools I didn't possess when I competed.

There’s nothing like sharing your goals with a list of 700 virtual friends to make sure I stay accountable and actually work towards completing my goals!

What about you, Reader?

Yours in hoops,

Coach Val
