Basketball fans will immediately recognize the skills of Team GB Olympian Temi Fagbenle, and those who have yet to know her will soon discover that she is a multi-faceted and multi-talented woman. Her relentless drive to win on the court is only matched by her ambitions on the cat walk, in the board room and on a set. It soon becomes apparent that she is not content with just her sporting achievements. Her other passions also fuel her drive, which aligns with her desire to inspire young girls and women, to encourage them to create their own pathway to realize their own dreams. Temi’s story is by no measure ordinary—that’s not her style—she has always been a high achiever from NBA to Olympian, USC to Harvard. One of 12 children born to Nigerian parents in Baltimore, Maryland, Temi was raised to believe in herself, to be a confident woman. She was always told she was beautiful and she exudes that inner strength which she hopes will encourage girls and women to feel body positive. She is, in short, a role model for all girls and women in sport, and in life, an example of how women can orchestrate their own inspirational journey… and it’s easy to be inspired by Temi. With the Paris 2024 Olympic Games her main focus, Temi is determined to complete some unfinished business. Team GB missed out on qualifying for the Rio and Tokyo Games, which is still an open wound. And while Olympic qualifications have just begun, she is also jetting back and forth to play for her league team at Çukurova Basketbol in Turkey. All this while running a fledgling business, along with her other off-court pursuits as a model, actress and UN women partner. This was a conversation I hope you enjoy as much as I did.
