Welcome to another episode of Hoops & Healing! This month I am joined by entrepreneur Alexandra Carrillo of By The Polish. Alexandra is a Chicago based nail tech who loves to create sensory designs that leave a lasting, meaningful impression. Telling a story through nails is her ultimate slam dunk. Alexandra doesn't have a big sports background and I as the host do not know much about nails, so we treated this episode as a fun educational experience on both ends. She made me a sickening Ellie The Elephant/New York Liberty nail set. We also review nail art in relation to sports whether it is fan nail art or athletes who do their nails (both women and men). Go sports!

Welcome to another episode of Hoops & Healing! This month I am joined by former hooper Lexi Davis. Lexi is based in Chicago but was born and raised in Bloomington, IL. Lexi grew up driving to Sky games as a kid with her family and is still a season ticket holder today. We dive into Lexi’s basketball experience playing from 2nd grade through high school and what is was like having her dad as her coach and what it was like tearing both of her ACL’s back to back and how she used ballet to rehab. Lexi is also an entrepreneur, her business is called BallHer Society and it is a women’s+ sports community and event brand. We get into her experience starting an events business and all the challenges and rewards that come from it. Go sports!
