An Alternative To Madness: Exploring The Dilemma Of Young Athletes Pursuing Professional Sport. Part One

In this first episode, we take a deep dive into the lure of professional sports and the difficult decision-making bind faced by young athletes. Drawing on the insights from the compelling blog post “An Alternative to Madness,” we explore the systems and structures that manipulate the naivety of young players and perpetuate an unsustainable model that they follow.  Special guest for this episode is 10-year NBA veteran Jerome “Junk Yard Dog” Williams.  Listen to him tell stories related to the many stars he played with in the past and his current focus on Shooting For Peace which leverages his three main tenants; choices, decisions, and consequences.
