“There could never be a more beautiful you.
Don’t buy the lies, disguises, and hoops they make you jump through.
You were made to fill a purpose that only you could do.
So, there could never be a more beautiful you.” – Jonny Diaz
When you visit Becky Hammon’s website, those are the words you’ll hear. They come from the popular song “More Beautiful You” by Jonny Diaz. As I’m sure you’ve gathered from even just a few lyrics, the song is about finding strength in yourself, being comfortable in your own skin, and always remaining true to one’s self.
Those words couldn’t describe Becky Hammon, and her journey, any better.
As anyone who knows Becky can attest to, she is living proof that believing in yourself can take you to places you never thought possible. Hammon has continually relied on both her faith and unshakeable sense of self to get to where she is at today – one of the best, and most recognizable, players in the WNBA.
Hammon is a living testament to where dedication, hard work, faith, and seizing the moment can get you. More than her play on the court, Hammon has created a perfect example for young women to follow. The constant mantra of negativity they hear growing up can be consuming and depressing. However, Hammon’s life is an illustration of hope and perseverance that girls can directly connect with.
