Show Notes:Rich Spotlight: LaChina Robinson
Stories and storytelling have always intrigued her and it’s one of the reasons that she was led to media
Hard to believe that it’s been 1o years she started in sportscasting
Mentors in her career even if they didn’t know that they were mentors include: Carolyn Peck, Bernadette (Bernie) McGlade and Robin Roberts has always been an inspiration
Has always loved watching sports and remembers as a kid watching all sports even figure skating and golfHer connection to sports was always the competitiveness as she’s always been a competitive person
Growing up was tough at times because at the age of 14 she was 6’4″ and she never felt that she“fit in” which caused her to have low self-esteem
After being pushed into basketball, she would play at Wake Forest University under head coach Charlene CurtisWorked within the Georgia Tech women’s basketball program before she started helping with being a color analyst and immediately fell in love with it
Never really pursued coaching because there was always this feeling of being only responsible for herself and having some freedoms in a senseLives2Inspire is her Instagram handle and her motto which reminds her every day of her purpose
Words of Wisdom from LaChina Robinson:“Don’t be afraid to go out on a limb because there’s where the fruit is.”“Stand for something or fall for anything.”
