In this episode, our host Marcelo sits down with his father Frank Leone, a dedicated basketball player, coach, and successful business professional with over 30 years of experience. Frank’s journey took him from playing basketball in his driveway with a homemade hoop to winning a conference title at Brush High School and leading a travel basketball team to a championship.

Frank’s story embodies what this show stands for: real stories for the ones still chasing theirs, even when no one’s watching. He shares the lessons he learned coaching young athletes, building a winning team culture, and guiding his son through his own basketball journey. From balancing the challenges of being both father and coach, to achieving long-term success in business, Frank opens up about the moments that shaped him, his family, and the relationships that mattered most.

Listeners will get a heartfelt look at the unique bond between father and son, the work ethic required to succeed in both sports and business, and the life lessons that sports and entrepreneurship can teach — about perseverance, leadership, and mentorship.
