This episode was inspired by the Netflix football documentary LAST CHANCE U. It features several collegiate athletes that have been removed from Division I rosters due to academic or disciplinary issues. Our conversation is focused on all aspects of personal development, leadership, social intelligence, and overcoming setbacks. We begin this conversation discussing season 3; which explores Independence Community College in Independence, Kansas. The first two seasons were filmed at East Mississippi Community College.
The highlights of this conversation include:
- The relationship between Frank Diaz and JB Brown
- The mentorship efforts of Ms. Pinkard
- Looking beyond athletics
- Team camaraderie
This is a great listen to understand why certain athletes have success and why others fail who are equally talented. It also enlightens the listener with strategies to overcome set-backs.
The student-athlete and sports parent will benefit tremendously by working through the Sports Mastery Workbook together. Click here to learn more.
