About this listen

The Los Angeles Lakers is one of the most iconic brands in all of global sports. At the intersection of professional sports, Hollywood, politics, and community service is Kiesha Nix. The L.A. native and former banker became the Lakers' first Black woman Vice President in 2022. Prior to becoming the Lakers' VP of Charitable Affairs and Executive Director of the Lakers Youth Foundation, Ms. Nix had already paved her road to divinity with countless hours devoted to improving the lives of residents in the City of Angels. U.S. citizen Andre da Costa was born in "The City of God," and witnessed firsthand the impact of local nonprofit organizations while growing up in Rio. The former soccer player sat down with the sports executive to listen to her advice on leadership, how to succeed as a working mom, how we can all have greater impact in our local communities, and how she measures her impact efforts.
