In this episode, Joe Delagrave joins me; we talk about his love for sport and how he was set to make that his career. Unfortunately, a significant, life-altering event changed everything. Joe shares his journey of how he moved on from, probably, the lowest point of his life to representing the United States internationally, at a competitive level.
Key Takeaways
- Step into what it is you want to do. Live for your purpose and stop trying to please others. It doesn't matter what other people think

- Let go of thinking you can do everything by yourself
- Don't see the obstacle, see the opportunity
- It is important to have people around you that can lift you up and also bring you down when needed
- Find a mentor and your tribe

- Whether you think you can, or think you can't, you are right
