Season 1 - Episode 5
For this episode, I sat down with a former player of mine that battled the circumstances life threw at him and has since earned his Juris Doctorate from Campbell Law School with a Masters in Trust and Wealth Management, mentors youth as a volunteer coach, is raising a family with his wife Ashley. His is a story about where he’s from and why that matters. His is also a story about breaking a familial generational curse that saw him escaping substance abuse, working a third shift job, living out of his car or on the couches of friends … all while attending high school. So if you’re looking for an example on what the power of self belief and deciding to just keep going, this is it.
