Seerat Sohi is joined by UCLA assistant coach Tasha Brown to unpack the Bruins’ championship run and record-setting WNBA draft class. They dive into UCLA’s team-first culture, the “Mind Gym” approach to mental training, and how concepts like self-identity, failure, and emotional control shaped the program’s success. Brown also shares behind-the-scenes insight into the development of stars like Lauren Betts, Kiki Rice, and Gabriella Jaquez, and why mental toughness is a skill that can be taught. Later, Seerat weighs in on the Azzi Fudd press conference controversy and how it could have been handled differently.
Host: Seerat Sohi
