Husky Talk- Dr. Trisha Bailey

A polarizing episode of Husky Talk with a truly special UConn Track alumni, Dr. Trisha Bailey. She is an inspiration to all of us, who turned a small medical supplies business into a juggernaut that operates through 7 states. Her net worth is astounding, Dr. Bailey is a successful entrepreneur, performed extremely well working on Wall Street, her memoir is a very emotional read titled: Unbroken "The Triumphant Story Of A Womans Journey." This show was produced by Kelly Greene, who is a LMHC and did a spectacular job helping me prepare to interview Dr. Bailey. Her research and input was instrumental, I am grateful, as well as thank her for being there for me. Dr. Baily grew up in Jamica, her grandmother had an incredible impact on her life from an early age. I saw her face glowing as she told the story of her grandmother walking several miles just to make sure the family had food to feed not only them, but the everyone in that area. Afterwards, Dr. Bailey's grandmother would drink broth or whatever was left because she made sure nobody went unfed. I am not going to begin to try to share Dr. Bailey's journey. You can listen to her journey from moving to the United States at age 13, attending Weaver High in Hartford before coming to UConn on a track scholarship. Life after graduation, she started out working in different careers, while overcoming obstacles, adversity, and trauma. Dr. Bailey started her first business in 2011 which distributed medical supplies to Medicare patients. She stressed being kind to people always, giving back and not needing to be a millionaire to do so. Dr. Bailey is spiritual and believes we can all help by donating money or our time to those in need. A true philanthropist, who donates to UConn, along with many other charities, she is an amazing person, and I thank her for sitting down for Husky Talk!
