In this episode, I sit down with Coach Rob, a high-level basketball trainer, former Division I athlete, and current player development coach at Kennesaw State. Coach Rob has worked with high school and college athletes who’ve gone on to the NBA and was part of Auburn’s player development staff during their unforgettable Final Four run.
Our conversation goes beyond the court. We talk about the lessons learned from basketball, the importance of humility and service, and how living as a servant opens doors both in sports and in life. Coach Rob also shares how he balances his career with family and marriage, and opens up about navigating the pain of losing his mother while continuing to push forward with purpose.
This is a conversation about basketball, yes, but more than that, it’s about perseverance, growth, and staying true to your calling.
