If you play any sport, you know that nothing beat hitting the game winning shot or having a walk-off base hit to win. But doing that at the NBA level is a whole different ballgame. NBA’s Brooklyn Nets player Paul Pierce can attest to that. Pierce recalls his most memorable game winning shots was back in 2010, when he was with the Boston Celtics, at Madison Square Garden against the New York ... Read More »
Getting to this very moment has been an incredibly interesting journey and I can’t even express how ecstatic I am to be writing my very first WIRL! Seeing my vision and dream become an actual “thing” is more motivating and surreal than I ever thought it would be. I can’t wait to share what it was really like to create and build a business and website; I learned so much and ... Read More »
I’m an Independent Director with Thirty-One Gifts, which means that I get paid to party! I absolutely love it, but I do have my fair share of embarrassing things that have happened at my parties. I’m the first to admit that I’ll never have a “perfect party”. I get excited when I present which leads to me talking too fast and stumbling on my words. I make funny faces w... Read More »

The skin between the hem of the shorts and the top of the high tops have been shrinking for years. Think back to t... Read More »

Recently I flew to Hawaii for spring break to go see my family. While on the eleven hour flight I noticed some things that made me ask, “Are you serious?”. On the flight from Charlotte to Dallas, nothing went wrong. Everything seemed fine. I assumed that the next flight would be the same way. I assumed wrong. On the flight from Dallas to Kahului, I sat horizontal from a couple from New... Read More »
I have struggled with other people’s assumptions my entire life. I remember being in the principal’s office at the public school we were zoned for when we lived in the country, and her leaning in and asking me “Are you an only child?” I was in her office because a boy had run up to me and grabbed me between my legs when our Spanish teacher was out of the room. I was so embarrassed — it had been a ... Read More »
