Former NFL standout Alex Molden joins host Blake to share his journey from late-blooming football player to first-round draft pick, and ultimately, to father of eight and leadership coach. Alex recounts how overcoming a severe knee injury taught him resilience, and he  explains why character always outweighs athletic ability, and why letting kids explore multiple sports—and fail—builds lifelong lessons more valuable than early specialization. 

Alex also opens up about the loneliness that can come with sudden success, the moment that reshaped his identity after football, and how he now channels his experiences into guiding others: from coaching high school DBs to mentoring clients on leadership, influence, and accountability. Tune in for a candid conversation on balancing elite performance with family, faith, and purpose.
