Tyree Dillingham’s journey has taken her from working in the administration of California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger to becoming an advocate and educator in the rapidly evolving world of Name, Image and Likeness (NIL). But, it's what happened one July 4th holiday which has had the biggest impact on Tyree's life.

In this episode of The Resilient Path Podcast with Kyle Draper, Tyree opens up about a life-changing health crisis involving a birth defect that led to emergency surgery and a difficult recovery.  At one point, Tyree could barely walk down the street without getting sick. The physical toll was enormous, but so was the mental and emotional challenge of watching the future she'd envisioned suddenly disappear. 

It’s an honest conversation about leadership, purpose, perseverance, and finding the strength to keep moving forward when life takes an unexpected turn.

Everyone faces adversity. The question is: How will you respond?

Kevin John has built a successful career as a sports broadcaster and journalist, but behind the confidence viewers see on television is a deeply personal story of struggle, perseverance and finding his place.

In this episode of The Resilient Path Podcast with Kyle Draper, Kevin shows even successful people struggle with depression.

It’s a powerful and vulnerable conversation about mental health, belonging, professional success and the reality that we often don’t know what someone is battling behind the scenes.
