7. Jacki Gemelos

For today's episode, we had the great chance to speak with Jacki Gemelos. She’s an American-Greek basketball player, who has represented both Team USA and the Greek National Team, played for several teams in Europe and who is now with the Washington Mystics in the WNBA. We speak about the transition when she left the US to play basketball in Europe and what it’s been like to travel the world to play basketball professionally. Jacki shares what it was like when basketball was taken from her for the first time and how she has managed to overcome 5 knee injuries throughout her career. She also speaks about what she’s learnt from her parents, who remain special role models to her today, but also about all the things that basketball has taught her.
