    My guest this month is Andrew Donovan: Vice President of Collegiate Partnerships at Altius Sports Partners.

Altius is leading the NIL revolution, working directly with the most prominent universities in the country in developing comprehensive and compliant programs to equip all stakeholders to successfully navigate this new era in intercollegiate athletics!

    Altius is unique in that their work doesn’t center on just what the universities can do, they’re also educating the athletes on a multitude of NIL-related issues including intellectual property, financial literacy, and how to leverage their brand in conjunction with their university.
    Andrew and I discuss his transition from University employment to working with a cutting-edge start-up. We talk about the NIL revolution, discussing issues ranging from current athlete branding to potential future issues like collective bargaining for university athletes.

    If you’re interested in the mesh between sports, business, the NCAA and athlete rights then this is the episode for you. So sit back and enjoy my conversation with Andrew Donovan.

    Episode 26: Nick Shaw - Author and Co-Founder of Renaissance Periodization

    Episode 26: Nick Shaw - Author and Co-Founder of Renaissance Periodization

    Welcome to a new episode of Game 7: The Sports, Business and Lifestyle Podcast. I’m Michael Elkins, labor and employment attorney, founder of the law firm MLE Law, and your host.

    My guest this month is Nick Shaw, author and co-founder of Renaissance Periodization (RP)  a science-based nutrition and training company. In this episode, Nick and I discuss his newly released book, Fit for Success, which breaks success down to seven habits as learned from years of working with world class athletes such as CrossFit Games champion Rich Froning.
    Nick places these seven habits — work ethic, internal locus of control, positive mindset, discipline, purpose, failure, and recharge — at the core of the book, and we discuss each in this episode.
    Fit for Success dedicates a chapter to each habit, diving deep into what it means to, for example, work hard. Shaw takes what he’s learned in the past six years at the helm of RP, as well as research from books on topics like self-improvement and economics, then combines it with a real-life narrative to explain each habit. At the end of each chapter, he suggests ways to put the habit into practice.

    Thank you for listening and enjoy the show!
