The Pivot Playbook: How to Start Again Without Starting Over with Travon Patterson
What happens when the one thing you've built your life around suddenly ends?
Travon Patterson went from USC football to the NFL, only to have injuries cut his career short. What followed wasn't a straight path. It was a series of pivots through social work, probation, real estate, and eventually back to football as a head coach.
This conversation is about what it really looks like to rebuild when life doesn't go according to plan. It's about identity, discipline, and learning how to carry your work ethic into completely different arenas. If you've ever felt stuck, lost, or forced to start over, this will give you a grounded way to think about your next move.
