Allowing Your Why To Drive Your Purpose

Transitioning away from a life as a professional athlete is tough, but there is a freedom on the other side of the transition when you are clear about your "why".

On this episode we welcome Darry Beckwith to the show who founded the Darry Beckwith Foundation, a cause whose sole purpose is that of progressing the lives of student-athletes one step at a time by providing purpose beyond athletics.

Donate to the Darry Beckwith Foundation here: https://donorbox.org/darry-beckwith-foundation

Darry's story is one of being an elite football player both with LSU and in the NFL, before having his career cut short due to injury. He recognized a gap in the support system for former athletes like himself and he decided to be an advocate for doing something about it

Darry serves kids throughout underserved communities by delivering key services in areas such as the importance of a well-rounded education, financial literacy, academic tutoring, while also providing after-school meals wherever and whenever possible.

Within our discussion, key competitive insights we learn from Darry include

  • Investing in yourself so as to be able to better invest in others
  • Establishing and living by set principles that fuel your "why"
  • The freedom that comes understanding why it is time to transition
  • Why your purpose should be ever-evolving

Darry is so clear about why he is showing up to do what he does each day, and you can contribute to supporting his work by heading to https://donorbox.org/darry-beckwith-foundation to donate whatever you are able to towards this incredible cause.
