Some people wait for an opportunity to change the game. Khalia Collier decided to create one.

In this episode, Brandon Williams and Deneen Busby sit down with the St. Louis native, entrepreneur, and basketball executive to explore her journey from building the St. Louis Surge into a women's basketball powerhouse to making her mark in the NBA with the Dallas Mavericks.

Khalia opens up about what it takes to build something from the ground up, navigate spaces where few people look like you, and turn a passion for basketball into a career that reaches far beyond the court. From betting on herself to stepping onto one of basketball's biggest stages, her story is about leadership, vision, and knowing when it's time to take the next leap.

For anyone who has ever had a dream bigger than the opportunities in front of them, this conversation is proof that sometimes you have to build your own way forward.

A special edition of Success SZN, recorded live at the 2026 Jim Butler Golf Classic.

In this fireside chat, President & CEO Brandon Williams sits down with DeMaurice F. Smith, attorney and former Executive Director of the NFL Players Association, for a conversation that goes well past the game. Smith spent over a decade at the table where football's biggest decisions got made, representing the players who made the league what it is.

He talks about the path from the courtroom to the negotiating table, what leadership looks like when the stakes are real, and the discipline it takes to advocate for people when the pressure is on. For anyone building a career in law, sports, business, or anywhere influence and integrity have to coexist, this one carries weight.
