With the uptick in NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) deals being made across the country, it's important for the athletes to understand at younger ages, the importance of finances! 

There are a lot of benefits to investing your money into different areas, including Real Estate, and today Chrissi will break down why. She'll discuss the importance of the tax benefits that come from it, and explain the exponential growth that can happen from these types of investments. 

There are many people who have wondered how athletes end up "broke"when their professional careers are over, and they don't fully understand how that's possible. It's probably because they didn't invest in the right places and that's why today's conversation is so important! 

So if you're an athlete, a parent, or a coach, or anyone who has ties to an athlete and can make an impact on them in a positive way, pay attention to this conversation and re-listen to it later too to take notes! This is one you'll want to remember!

Mental Health has become such a big topic these days. In the history of my show, we've discussed this with various experts in the field, and today we get to chat with a Mental Health and Sports Performance Specialist, who currently works closely with the Oakland Roots of the USL. 

Listen today about the techniques and ideas she has in her experience working with athletes. Why do so many athletes battle with their mental health? Why don't we focus more on this within our sports organizations/programs? We have strength and conditioning coaches, why not mental health consultants or performance specialists in that field? 

We break it all down on this today on the show! It's a fantastic interview for young athletes as well as the adults that surround them, whether they be parents, coaches, leaders, etc. 

Make sure to listen in and please leave us a review on Apple Podcasts to share what you thought about the episode! It would help us out immensely!!

Rebecca Harris is an incredible individual. One who is utilizing her platform to help educate others who may be in a similar situation to her at this point in their lives. Today on the show we're going to find out more about her basketball career and what she's learned along the way. 

From starting her career overseas (military family), then coming to the United States, there were some adjustments she had to make. She was used to playing "co-ed" with the boys, and when it took some adjusting to when she came to the US and had to play with the girls, but she did just that, and did it well. 

Find out more about her story today on the show as she discusses insight she's taken from playing, from the coaches who have coached her and more.

Some may know or remember "Big T" Thurl Bailey as the man who was part of the 1983 National Championship team with North Carolina State, who was coached by Coach Jim Valvano. He was drafted in the first round of the NBA draft and played 12 of his 16 professional seasons in the National Basketball Association between the Utah Jazz and Minnesota Timberwolves organizations. 

What most don't know however, is the fact that Thurl's basketball talents didn't necessarily come naturally. He had the passion for the sport and the dedication and willingness to get better,  but he truly had to WORK at it to be where he's at. 

Find out today on the show just how he was able to go from playing 2 seconds a game (the tip offs) in Junior High, to becoming a National Champion in College, to then playing 16 years as a professional (12 of which were in the NBA). It's truly one you want to pay attention to. 

Major shoutout to my cousin John Elmer, who helped me land this interview with Thurl. John is a sports fan just like me. And when he was at his local gym working out, he went out of his way to communicate with Thurl who happened to be there too, and got him in contact with me! This interview wouldn't have happened without John's support and willingness to reach out for me! So for that I want to say thanks to John! Love ya man!! 

I would love for all to check out Thurl's book, by going to: 

https://thurlbailey.com/ 

I promise you one thing, after listening to this interview, you're going to see exactly why the people of Utah have embraced this man with open arms! He's a man of character, who is well-spoken and respectful to all! I've always had a respect for Thurl, but didn't truly realize how unbelievably impactful he was until I spoke with him! 

Enjoy the interview!

At a very young age (junior in High School), Case was tasked with making a decision that could literally change the trajectory of his future, not only his athletic future, but his academic future as well.
