The Neil Haley Show 04-24-25
In this powerful episode of The Neil Haley Show, Neil opens with an important conversation spotlighting APOL1-mediated kidney disease (AMKD). Lavarne A. Burton, President and CEO of the American Kidney Fund, and NBA Hall of Famer Alonzo Mourning, who was diagnosed with AMKD, come together to raise awareness for the second annual AMKD Awareness Day on April 29. They break down the impact of this genetic form of kidney disease, especially among Black, African American, Afro-Caribbean, and Latino communities. Alonzo shares his personal health journey and emphasizes the importance of early detection and taking ownership of one’s health before symptoms become serious.
The episode then shifts to baseball legend Clint Hurdle, former manager of the Pittsburgh Pirates and author of the new book Hurdle-isms. Clint reflects on his 50 years in baseball—from playing alongside George Brett with the Royals to leading the Pirates back to postseason relevance. He shares leadership lessons rooted in humility, perseverance, and personal growth. Clint explains how his book was inspired by quotes, stories, and guiding principles he's lived by throughout his life and career, with a central message: “There are two kinds of people—those who are humble, and those who are about to be.”
Next, Neil talks with Andrea, a physical therapist who successfully transitioned into entrepreneurship by launching her own home health therapy business. With the help of FeldCare Connects, Andrea now controls her schedule, sees fewer patients per day, and earns more—all while maintaining a better work-life balance. She explains how FeldCare provided the steady stream of referrals and support she needed to make the leap from clinic employee to empowered business owner.
The conversation continues with Dr. Andrew, a professor at Cal State Northridge and part-time home health therapist. Dr. Andrew shares how working with FeldCare enables him to stay active in clinical practice while teaching full-time. He praises FeldCare’s efficient systems, responsiveness, and flexibility. He also highlights how home health allows providers to deliver deeply personalized care and encourages students to consider this path for its impact, autonomy, and quality of life.
This episode delivers an inspiring blend of health advocacy, leadership wisdom, and entrepreneurial success. From Lavarne A. Burton and Alonzo Mourning’s call for early genetic testing to Clint Hurdle’s life lessons in Hurdle-isms, and from Andrea and Dr. Andrew’s stories of flexible, meaningful care—The Neil Haley Show reminds listeners that with awareness, grit, and the right support, you can take control of your story.
