Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant knew how important it was to have the voice of Michael Jordan chirping in his ear. So he’d call him up constantly and hold hour-long conversations. The experience and knowledge Michael Jordan possesses are rare. So everyone, like Bryant, would jump at the opportunity to understand and learn from the Hall of Famer. His expertise doesn’t just end on the basketball court. Rather, it expands to areas of business and life as well. Again, like Kobe, his daughter, Jasmine Jordan always looks for advice from her father. However, she isn’t too sure if His Airness is happy with this.
Jasmine Jordan joined the Jordan company to help empower and improve the lives of women in sports. As per an interview with Forbes, Jasmine is working with WNBA stars like Dearica Hamby and Aerial Powers. She is also focusing on expanding the Jordan brand into other sports. While trying to maintain the Jordan legacy, Jasmine banks on her father for encouragement and words of advice.

In an interview with Gia Peppers in 2020, Jasmine revealed that she is constantly trying to have a deep conversation with her father. In a joking manner, she stated that this could bug the six-time finals MVP. She said, “He’s probably sick of me”. Following this, she dropped a few words of advice that she has received from Jordan.
For Jordan, the way of life is to simply be real and authentic. In his words, one can never be nervous if they are being true to themselves. Jasmine explained this and said, “No one can tell you what to do, no one can tell you who you are. That is what you own and that is your truth. That is what you have to represent.”
Jasmine stated that this helps her every day. Her mindset before going into any meeting is to give her 100% and walk out knowing that she has done a good job. For her, the result of the meeting doesn’t matter. Jasmine is focused on having a positive attitude and being true to herself, just like her father was and continues to be.

This is what she wants her legacy to say.
