In this powerful and deeply insightful episode of The Art of Rebounding, host Harold “Lefty” Williams sits down with renowned NBA insider, media personality, and executive producer Brandon “Scoop B” Robinson for a masterclass on persistence, positioning, and purpose.

Scoop B pulls back the curtain on the journey most people never see — from living in his grandmother’s basement in Jersey City, surviving on food stamps, freelancing for over a dozen publications at once, and investing in himself when there were no guarantees. He shares how those unseen years built the foundation for the visibility, credibility, and influence he carries today.

Listeners hear firsthand how Scoop developed his edge — understanding digital media before it became mainstream, learning how stories travel online, and being willing to say what he knew even when people laughed. He reflects on breaking major NBA storylines involving LeBron James, Kyrie Irving, Kevin Durant, and how preparation met opportunity during pivotal moments starting in 2018.

One of the most emotional moments comes as Scoop shares how his late mother witnessed the fulfillment of everything they had prayed and prepared for — from network television to major partnerships — before her passing, a reminder that purpose outlives seasons.

This episode is a reminder that you don’t quit because you don’t see results — you keep going because the harvest is already on the way.

In this deeply moving episode of The Art of Rebounding, host Harold “Lefty” Williams welcomes Gabby de la Cruz, a young woman whose story is a living testimony of faith, resilience, and choosing joy in the face of uncertainty.

Gabby shares her journey from feeling lost in middle school, navigating COVID-era high school, and finally finding direction — only to have it interrupted by a rare and serious medical diagnosis at 17. What followed was a season of hospital stays, unanswered questions, and learning how to let go of control.

Rather than giving up, Gabby leaned into faith, family, and community. She opens up about the people who stayed, the prayers that carried her, and the mindset shift that changed everything — moving from “I have to” to “I get to.”

Now in college, Gabby reflects on changing majors, letting go of external validation, and discovering her true calling while working with elementary school students. Teaching didn’t just give her direction — it restored her joy and reminded her that purpose often reveals itself through service.

This episode is a powerful reminder that rebounding isn’t about avoiding storms — it’s about standing strong while everything around you is shaking.

In this special and deeply personal episode of The Art of Rebounding, host Harold “Lefty” Williams sits down with his nephew Caleb “CJ” Gore for an honest conversation about family legacy, personal growth, and carving out your own identity.

Growing up around elite athletes, coaches, and high-level conversations, CJ shares what it’s like to learn by observation — watching success, discipline, and failure up close. Rather than being handed a path, he talks about the responsibility that comes with proximity to greatness and the internal work required to build something of your own.

CJ reflects on the lessons he’s absorbed from family, the importance of accountability, and why patience is a competitive advantage. He opens up about navigating expectations, staying grounded, and understanding that rebounding isn’t always loud — sometimes it’s quiet consistency, showing up daily, and honoring the process.

This episode is about legacy without entitlement, growth without shortcuts, and why proximity is only powerful when paired with preparation.

In this powerful and transparent episode of The Art of Rebounding, host Harold “Lefty” Williams sits down with writer, actor, speaker, and mentor Gabriel Cannon for a deeply honest conversation about identity, faith, and finding purpose when you’re standing close to greatness — but not always in the spotlight.

As the younger brother of global entertainer Nick Cannon, Gabriel shares what it’s really like growing up adjacent to fame while navigating his own calling. From family roots grounded in faith, discipline, and creativity, to wrestling with comparison, colorism, and delayed seasons, Gabriel opens up about the emotional and spiritual work required to stay grounded when the world expects you to follow someone else’s path.

He reflects on moments where doors closed that he once prayed would open — including opportunities in music and entertainment — and how those setbacks ultimately became protection. Gabriel also shares how his experiences behind the scenes led him into mental health advocacy, mentorship, and creative work with incarcerated youth, using improv and storytelling as tools for healing and restoration.

This episode is a masterclass in positioning, patience, and purpose, reminding listeners that being “close” is not the same as being “closed” — and that God’s timing is never a denial.

In this heartfelt and inspiring episode of The Art of Rebounding, host Harold “Lefty” Williams sits down with recording artist SYX Figures for a powerful conversation about loss, faith, discipline, and trusting the long game.

SYX Figures opens up about her journey into music — from falling in love with writing at a young age to discovering her voice through tragedy after losing close friends in a car accident. That pain became the catalyst for her first song and ultimately launched her commitment to artistry.

She shares the real story behind her grind: starting as an intern, working her way into trusted positions, driving a sprinter van during the pandemic, and staying faithful when the world shut down. Along the way, she found alignment with the right people — including Eric Bellinger, whose independent path inspired her belief in patience, teamwork, and authenticity.

This episode dives into:

With her new single “Soaking Wet” (feat. Eric Bellinger, Mazi & RJ) and an album on the way, SYX Figures reminds us that nothing is wasted — every setback is positioning you for what’s next.

In this deeply moving episode of The Art of Rebounding, host Harold “Lefty” Williams, joined by co-host Shyneefa Williams, sits down with acclaimed actor Brandon Hammond for a powerful conversation about resilience, faith, and reclaiming your narrative.

Brandon takes listeners behind the scenes of his journey — from starting as a child actor at just five years old to landing a single line that changed his life and opened the door to iconic roles, including Menace II Society and Soul Food. But beyond the spotlight, Brandon shares the unseen battles: a rare autoimmune disease diagnosis at age 14, being told the industry no longer had room for him, and the emotional toll of losing momentum during his formative years.

Now, three decades later, Brandon is stepping back into his power — telling his story on his own terms, partnering with advocacy organizations to raise awareness for Castleman disease, and preparing a documentary that reframes both his career and his healing.

This episode is a testament to the truth that one line, one decision, one day can change everything — and that setbacks don’t erase purpose, they refine it.

In this raw and inspiring episode of The Art of Rebounding, host Harold “Lefty” Williams sits down with Ocho, a personal trainer, entrepreneur, and founder of the Keep Winning brand, for a powerful conversation about discipline, faith, and what it really means to go all in.

Ocho opens up about growing up in Baltimore, chasing his athletic dreams, transitioning from corporate life at Oracle into full-time personal training, and making the difficult choice to pursue purpose over comfort. Just as his life was gaining momentum in Los Angeles, an unexpected setback landed him in federal prison — forcing him to confront fear, uncertainty, and identity head-on.

What followed was a mental and spiritual rebirth.

While incarcerated, Ocho heard a message that would change everything: keep winning. That mindset became the foundation for his life, his training philosophy, and his now-thriving brand. Today, Ocho owns a private training gym in Los Angeles, works with high-profile clients, and leads with a philosophy rooted in discipline, sacrifice, and unwavering belief.

This episode is a masterclass in rebounding — proving that your setback does not disqualify you, it can position you.
