THE COACH 2 COACH PODCAST

I CAN'T MAKE IT UNTIL YOU MAKE IT

Sitting down with Coach Kyle Adams is the consummate leadership and history lesson. From West Philadelphia born and raised, we dived so deeply into coaching, basketball, hip-hop, HBCU Pride, history and fatherhood that I had the grandiose task of editing this podcast down to an hour.  We talk about the Xs and Os and the ebbs and flows of THE GAME. However, what you all get the opportunity to hear is a coach that's true to the craft of developing the people from head to heart to hands which makes each person a triple threat in all field of human endeavors when trained, coached, empowered and supported properly.

PROGRESS OVER PERFECTION

My good friend and sister, Dr. Venessa Perry stopped by on a break from an AWARD TOUR which is her life in real time to weigh in on all things coaching, consulting and adulting. The view from her proverbial window is actually the best seat in the BIG APPLE because of her passion for serving, listening, learning, leaning, leading and shifting the atmosphere in spaces where she is charismatically fluent in the language of equity, advocacy, problem solving and team building.
