Feeling OLD? I'm aware my age is pushing into the higher numbers... but that doesn't stop me one minute from being brilliant in my goals & effort. On a door at home, I've posted: Grow old. Don't BE old. We only fade away if we let society think we've faded. @OprahDaily

@coachtillett!!!! Thanks for sharing conversation at the STL airport on your way back from LA. It's easy to see why you are a great coach. Your easy-charismatic personality and obvious love for your program and players are contagious. Count me as a new @SaintLouisWBB AND Rebecca Tillett fan. Much appreciation and gratitude... S.

WOW. TOUGH first loss, Coach Yo (@YolettMcCuin). BUT... #1. You proved you're one of THE best teams in the country. This game with #3 could've gone either way. #2. Better to know what it feels like to lose these games now...so you don't have to feel that way come MARCH. YOU and your players are an amazing group of resilient, committed and impressive women and athletes. AND... THIS is YOUR season. AND... You will win LOTS. I believe in you, Coach. Thank you for the opportunity to support you and your program. BOTH are "A+." Gratitude... S.

@JanaElAlfyy... LOVED the article by @maggie_vanoni that shined a light on how hard you've worked to get back to the court... and the DEEP kindness and appreciation that exudes from your father. I BELIEVE... You're going to have a REMARKABLE year 1) Helping @UConnWBB basketball SHINE 2) Inspiring young women in Egypt and all around the world to believe in their dreams. May you have the BEST year of your life, #8. Appreciation and gratitude... S. @EBBFED @WomensHoops_USA

You never know how big something can GROW... after planting the first seed. "Going the extra mile" has been a theme I've run with for 30+ years; it's in sooo much of my work. (I even named one of my dogs EMi for "E-xtra Mi-le"). BUT… My biggest "extra-mile" success is creating "Extra Mile Day" on November 1. Started in 2009... My intention was to recognize those individuals and organizations "going the extra mile" in volunteerism, service and contribution to make life just a bit better for others in their local communities. In the inaugural year… I was elated 23 cities jumped in on my crazy mission and participated. Sixteen years later…today...on November 1, 2024...520+ cities across the United States will participate. Never stop planting seeds. Gratitude… S. #volunteer #GoTheExtraMile @PointsofLight Mile Day (November 1) Claps for Inspired Volunteers in 500+ Cities
