Ebb & Flow with Solomon Ezra

On this episode with Brandon Sneed
Brandon's background and passion for writing
Sports as a natural area for storytelling

Shay serrano sports are like watching your favorite movie but you don't know the ending

Head in the Game

"Not needing to feel good to do good work"

Sooner the story of OU football coach Lincoln Riley

Working with them instead of making them work for you
What it means to be a coach, by definition
How do we help athletes actually learn the lessons sports are there to teach us?
Room for error is necessary to make room for success

Lessons to be learned

Anger is a secondary emotion, from a sense of frustration. Lincoln learned how to make it fun regardless of W or L. There's a difference between having fun and getting addicted to stuff that feels good.
If it's not fun you're not doing something right.
How the event that seemingly stripped the game away actually made him into someone he probably wouldn't have become
If you keep holding onto what you were, then you're not going to become what you could be otherwise
