ABOUT JONTE HALL
Jonte Hall, stands tall at 5’2”! During his earlier years, he was often told to quit pursuing his aspirations of becoming a professional basketball player, “you’re not growing any much, give it up!”
But he had bigger plans of his own! After many try-outs,rejections related to his height (not skills), $200.00 to his name & lasthope, he gave it his all and became the first shortest player in history, for “The World Famous Harlem Globetrotters”.
Now, that’s a trailblazer!
After playing with the organization for 10 years, he transitioned in 2019 into becoming a Motivational Speaker to pursue his life’s purpose. These days he travels and visits schools nationwide to deliver the message of dreaming big, and never giving up, no matter the size of their obstacles.
His message to us is this, “as long as your heart stands tall, you’re not so small!”

ABOUT CHIQUITA HALL-JACKSON
Attorney Chiquita Hall-Jackson, Esq. is a Licensed attorney, Employment law expert and the Founder of Hall-Jackson and Associates, PLLC. These are just a few of the titles that Chiquita holds. But none truly capture her fierce advocacy for marginalized employees and her passion for creating equitable workplaces in Illinois and beyond.
After facing race and gender bias in her own career, Chiquita used her personal experiences to power her professional purpose. Her courtroom superpower is speaking up for those whose voices have been silenced by workplace discrimination, harassment, and retaliation. Chiquita believes the workplace should be a safe, welcoming environment and she’s dedicated her life’s work to ensuring minorities are seen, heard, and respected from the backroom to the boardroom.
As an expert in diversity, equity and inclusion, Chiquita has nearly a decade of experience on the plaintiff side of the law. Now, she brings that unique perspective and her signature F.R.E.E. framework to employers who deeply desire to recruit and retain diverse talent and avoid litigation. It’s no wonder she was named the first Black President of the National Employment Lawyers Association of Illinois.
In addition to her years fighting for workers’ rights, she’s an adjunct law professor with a certificate in Diversity and Inclusion from Cornell University. While she’s relentless about advancing more equitable and diverse workplace conditions, she’s also proud of running a successful law firm for 8 years and becoming a licensed attorney.

On this episode, Dr. Matthew Raidbard discusses all things leadership, how to tap into yours and his new book with Sivonnia DeBarros, the protector of athletes.
After obtaining his Bachelor’s degree in history and classical studies from Indiana University, Dr. Raidbard decided to pursue his dream of being a college basketball coach. His first college basketball coaching job was at Western New Mexico University, where in addition to coaching he completed his Master’s degree in Educational Leadership.
After leaving Western New Mexico he served as a men’s basketball coach at Dartmouth College, Florida Gulf Coast University, and Chicago State University. While working at Chicago State he completed his Doctorate in Educational Leadership, with his dissertation focusing on determining the best leadership style and behaviors for athletic coaches to practice. From his dissertation research, he realized that coaches at all levels of sports were being asked to take on increased leadership responsibilities for their athletes and team without sufficient opportunities to receive leadership education and training.
This finding was the inspiration for his new book, “Lead Like A Pro,” where he helps inform coaches about leadership practice, and teaches them how to be more intentional and effective leaders. During his last two years at Chicago State he transitioned into athletics administration, and since that time has worked at the University of Northern Colorado, before moving into his current role as the Executive Senior Associate Athletic Director for Administration, Compliance, and Student-Athlete Success at the University of Hartford.

Harry Swayne was born in Philadelphia and attended Rutgers University, receiving a B.S. in Sport Management. He received numerous Big East honors and was drafted by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the 7th round of the 1987 NFL draft. After playing defensive line for three years, he made the difficult switch in 1990 to left offensive tackle where he would play for twelve years. Harry spent the next six years as a San Diego Charger, taking them to their first ever World Championship, Super Bowl XXIX in 1994. He would win the next two World Championships with the Denver Broncos. Harry then signed with the Baltimore Ravens in 1999 and won his third World Championship, Super Bowl XXXV. The Miami Dolphins were his final team for the 2001 season after fifteen years in the NFL. After an extensive year of training with the para-church ministry, Athletes in Action, Harry was assigned to the Chicago Bears. He served as Life Coach and Team Chaplain for five years during Head Coach Lovie Smith’s tenure. In 2008, Harry returned to the Baltimore Ravens as the Player Development Director, working closely with GM Ozzie Newsome. Harry was tasked with shaping the culture of the team by creating innovative programs and strategically engaging and utilizing partnerships with key influencers. Harry designed, built and executed programs that ensured high potential players performed consistently at the highest level of sport. He created and implemented the Ravens Mentoring Program, which became a sought-after designation for veteran players for 10 years. Additionally, Harry initiated the Ravens Rookie Orientation program which he designed to utilize solution-based research and content driven by qualitative and quantitative data. These and other programs set the Ravens apart. Harry proved that analyzing data in HR was just as profitable as analytics in strategic football. His talent acquisition duties within the personnel department included 90+ face to face interviews in which Harry identified character traits consistent with organizational goals. Harry’s narrative reports to the GM, Ozzie Newsome, both helped to forecast workforce planning and inform program changes. During his time with the Ravens, Harry’s programs, including his “Bring the Upstairs Down” (BUD) initiative (which educated employees on benefits, insurance grievances, payroll, union matters, 401k, etc.) greatly influenced the culture of the team and the organization. His robust and comprehensive programs are driven by a holistic approach. People perform at high levels when they are situated as teammates, friend, and co-workers invested relationally. Many with knowledge of my programming agree with Troy Vincent, VP NFL Operations, that “Harry’s department is the benchmark of Player Engagement.” Harry participated in and won the Wharton School of Executive Education (2012) competition. He led a group of six other NFL franchises and won by utilizing feedback in the milieu as a networking strategy for Career Development. Harry completed his Masters in Human Service Counseling (2018) at Liberty University.

Dr. Gregory Charlop improves the lives of retired athletes (pros and amateurs) with high-performance wellness solutions. His solutions include expert advice on diet, nutrition, sleep, supplements, and mental health.
Retired athletes know their bodies are no longer at their best. They no longer have a team of experts managing their diet and exercise routines. They notice that things are beginning to slip. Maybe they’ve gained some weight. Stamina isn’t what it used to be. The mirror is no longer their friend.
Dr. Greg was featured on ABC, NBC, CBS, and FOX. He’s the founder of Retired Athlete Health and the author of Why Doctors Skip Breakfast: Wellness Tips to Reverse Aging, Treat Depression, and Get a Good Night’s Sleep.
He founded Retired Athlete Health and created the Seven-Week Wellness Program to fill the team void for retired athletes. His program is designed to help clients reclaim their youthful health and vigor. His team of experts teach athletes how to use technology, foods, supplements and exercise to create a customized plan to fit their lifestyle.
Dr. Greg is a focused wellness expert who isn’t Dr. Google or your primary doctor. Athletes want someone they can trust to ask health questions. “Is it okay to have this much sugar?” “Should I take vitamins?” “How much sleep do I need?” He gives concrete answers to show clients an achievable and evidence-based way to improve their health and performance.
He uses telemedicine visits to boost athlete health from the convenience and safety of their homes.
Ask Dr. Greg: Tap into Dr. Greg’s health and wellness expertise. “Ask Dr. Greg” is a regularly published question and answer column for athletes. We invite you to ask questions free of charge with anonymity and confidentiality. Simply email your question to gc@gregorycharlopmd.com.

Danielle Berman
Danielle Berman has dedicated her career to helping athletes understand their full potential. She works to provide athletes with resources and a community to help them succeed in all aspects of their lives. Her focus on the athlete as an individual rather than a cog in the sports industry machine has helped her create unique opportunities and impact in the sports space.
Through Tackle What’s Next, Danielle works to provide athletes of all ages, sports and circumstance the opportunity to focus on creating impact and finding purpose in life after sports. She founded Tackle What’s Next with the goal of providing athletes with a safe space to discuss the challenges of transitioning out of sport as well as share resources that can help. Danielle is a super connector and finds so much joy in connecting people to the contacts and resources they need to reach their goals.
Danielle is also passionate about educating athletes and nonprofits on the best ways to work together to create social impact. Rather than recreating the wheel or competing against likeminded initiatives, she aims to encourage athletes and nonprofits to work together and bridge the gap between sports and philanthropy to create sustainable community impact. She created the Tackle What Matters impact incubator to put her knowledge and experience to good use guiding professional athletes and organizations who want to make an impact in the community. She aims to ensure that the projects athletes take on in the community are sustainable and truly impactful.
Danielle also is the host of the Big League Philanthropist podcast which highlights the work that athletes are doing to make the world a better place. The podcast aims to share each athlete’s inspiration for making an impact and why they are passionate about the causes they support.
Danielle has worked primarily with athletes, both current and retired, for nearly a decade and is passionate about helping them achieve their goals outside of sport. She graduated from Syracuse University with a degree in Sports Management and a minor in Public Communications. Danielle earned her Sports Philanthropy Certificate from George Washington University.

Taj Dashaun is a former Division-1 college football player for Stony Brook University. When his football career ended, Taj struggled heavily with depression. Because he was so focused on the game, he never fully developed a clear vision for his life.
After several years of stumbling around in the emotional darkness of uncertainty, Taj began to take his eyes off himself and focus on serving others. He now runs an intensive program called, Thrive After Sports, for retired athletes who, like he once was, are struggling to adapt to life after sports. Not only does Taj help former players land jobs and start businesses, but he also helps them find fulfillment in every area of their lives.
It’s become his personal mission and passion to reach out and help others overcome the fear, frustration and uncertainty associated with life post-athletics. Taj is also the host of the Thrive After Sports podcast and the author of his new book, Thrive After Sports.

Stuart Hart enters his fourth season as the head women’s basketball strength and conditioning coach at the University of Nebraska in 2020-21.
In his first year at Nebraska in 2017-18, Hart helped the Huskers make huge strides in all aspects of performance and conditioning. The Big Red produced the nation’s top turnaround on the court, notching 14 more victories than 2016-17, while advancing to the 2018 NCAA Tournament. The Huskers tied for third in the Big Ten regular-season race with eight more conference wins than the previous season. NU also advanced to the Big Ten Tournament semifinals.
Hart joined the Huskers after spending the 2016-17 season as the head strength and conditioning coach for the University of South Florida men’s basketball program.
Prior to the past season with the USF men’s program, Hart led the strength and conditioning efforts of the USF women’s basketball program in 2014-15 and 2015-16, helping the Bulls to back-to-back NCAA Tournament appearances.
“We are thrilled to add someone with Coach Hart’s background and experience to help develop our student-athletes at the University of Nebraska,” Head Coach Amy Williams said. “Coach Hart not only has a track record of success as a strength coach, he also brings his experiences as both a basketball player and assistant coach.”
Hart was a men’s basketball player at Saint Leo University before graduating in 1998. Upon his graduation, Hart served as the head strength and conditioning coach for the Saint Leo Lions from 2008 through 2014. He was responsible for designing and coordinating in- and off-season workout programs for all of 19 sports. Hart hired, supervised and trained a staff of five at Saint Leo, and assisted the Certified Athletic Training staff with rehabilitation of student-athletes.
In addition to his role as a strength and conditioning coach, Hart also served as an assistant women’s basketball coach for three seasons from 2008 to 2011, breaking down film for the team, coordinating travel plans and developing a recruiting base.
A Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (SCCS) by the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA), Hart supervised and managed a 4,500 square-foot Fitness Center at Saint Leo, assisting University members and community patrons, while overseeing 35 student staff during that same six-year period.
At Nebraska, Hart travels with the women’s basketball team as the Huskers’ primary strength and conditioning coach. His philosophy is to create a mentally and physically challenging environment to replicate and ready the student-athletes for the psychological and physiological demands of competition.

Stuart Hart enters his fourth season as the head women’s basketball strength and conditioning coach at the University of Nebraska in 2020-21.
In his first year at Nebraska in 2017-18, Hart helped the Huskers make huge strides in all aspects of performance and conditioning. The Big Red produced the nation’s top turnaround on the court, notching 14 more victories than 2016-17, while advancing to the 2018 NCAA Tournament. The Huskers tied for third in the Big Ten regular-season race with eight more conference wins than the previous season. NU also advanced to the Big Ten Tournament semifinals.
Hart joined the Huskers after spending the 2016-17 season as the head strength and conditioning coach for the University of South Florida men’s basketball program.
Prior to the past season with the USF men’s program, Hart led the strength and conditioning efforts of the USF women’s basketball program in 2014-15 and 2015-16, helping the Bulls to back-to-back NCAA Tournament appearances.
“We are thrilled to add someone with Coach Hart’s background and experience to help develop our student-athletes at the University of Nebraska,” Head Coach Amy Williams said. “Coach Hart not only has a track record of success as a strength coach, he also brings his experiences as both a basketball player and assistant coach.”
Hart was a men’s basketball player at Saint Leo University before graduating in 1998. Upon his graduation, Hart served as the head strength and conditioning coach for the Saint Leo Lions from 2008 through 2014. He was responsible for designing and coordinating in- and off-season workout programs for all of 19 sports. Hart hired, supervised and trained a staff of five at Saint Leo, and assisted the Certified Athletic Training staff with rehabilitation of student-athletes.
In addition to his role as a strength and conditioning coach, Hart also served as an assistant women’s basketball coach for three seasons from 2008 to 2011, breaking down film for the team, coordinating travel plans and developing a recruiting base.
A Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (SCCS) by the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA), Hart supervised and managed a 4,500 square-foot Fitness Center at Saint Leo, assisting University members and community patrons, while overseeing 35 student staff during that same six-year period.
At Nebraska, Hart travels with the women’s basketball team as the Huskers’ primary strength and conditioning coach. His philosophy is to create a mentally and physically challenging environment to replicate and ready the student-athletes for the psychological and physiological demands of competition.

Tiffany Kelly is a sports entrepreneur, data scientist, public speaker, and philanthropist. She is currently the Founder & CEO of Curastory, the easiest way to get started creating videos while first focusing on a unique market, professional athletes and student athletes.
Before making her leap into the world of startups, she joined ESPN Stats & Information Group as a Sports Analytics Associate, where she created ESPN’s College Football Fan Happiness Index. She was the first African-American analyst to join the team. Throughout her tenure with the leading sports multimedia company, she became an advocate for harmonizing creativity, human traits, and data science. When people ask Tiffany Kelly to describe herself, she doesn’t hesitate to say that first and foremost she is a passionate idealist and visionary to her core — a trait birthed from her parents, the Reverend Dr. Herman O. Kelly, Jr. and Linda M. Kelly.
Dr. Kelly, a University educator, philosopher, and theologian, helped raise Tiffany and her older brother Herman O. Kelly, III giving both lessons on the meaning of life and joy while Mrs. Kelly worked as a corporate analyst with a background in computer science and technology. A product of the Louisiana private educational system, Tiffany Kelly attended an all-girls Catholic, college preparatory school St. Joseph’s Academy in Baton Rouge before moving to Fort Lauderdale, Florida to study Sport & Recreation Management, Statistics, and Computer Science from Nova Southeastern University (NSU).
She grew more into her natural ability to lead by creating the first sports organization open to undergraduate students at NSU. Early in her college years, Ms. Kelly decided her true calling was eliminating the inequality and lack of gender and racial diversity within the sports industry, especially decision-makers at the top. She served as an analytics contributor for The Undefeated writing on her own experiences and the experiences of other minorities within sports analytics.
Tiffany Kelly has continued her diversity efforts by inspiring youth and women in STEM to use their gifts to change sports and sports tech for a better future. As board member of the Sports Analytics Club Program (SACP) and high-profile ambassador of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) – Lyda Hill Philanthropies IF/THEN Initiative, she seeks to further this calling through sports analytics educational programs provided in inner city secondary schooling throughout the country, and mentoring middle school girls in STEM so they can then be the change.
