In this episode of Thank You for Saying NO, Kenya sits down with WNBA star Lexie Brown—a champion, a leader, and a relentless competitor. Lexie has played for the Connecticut Sun, Minnesota Lynx, Chicago Sky (where she won the 2021 WNBA Championship), and now, the Los Angeles Sparks. But her journey hasn’t been a straight path—it’s been full of unexpected turns, hard “no” moments, and unwavering resilience. Lexie opens up about the highs and lows of her career, from being waived to winning a championship, how setbacks with multiple teams led to unexpected opportunities, her battle with Crohn’s disease and making the tough choice to prioritize her health, and how she’s redefining success, stepping into leadership, and embracing her role with Athletes Unlimited. Through every challenge, Lexie has found strength in rejection and power in perseverance. Tune in as she shares how the hardest “no” moments became the stepping stones to her biggest wins—on and off the court.
