We unpack:
• Why “winning” fails to define greatness
• The danger of tying your identity to performance
• How coaches shape team culture through empathy
• What losing teaches you about resilience
• The battle between ambition, peace, and contentment

If you’ve ever struggled with pressure, perfectionism, or the feeling that “success should feel better than this,” this episode will hit home.

This is more than basketball — it’s about who you become along the way.
