“Anyone can figure out how a system works and then trace it backward, determining what needs to be done within that system to make it work.”
- Jordan Babineaux, Pivot to Win
Whether you’re building a career, leading a team, running a business or simply trying to live your best life possible, Jordan Babineaux is a role model whose experiences, both good and bad, will inspire readers to achieve their wildest dreams. In his book, Pivot to Win, the former NFL player turned sports broadcaster, entrepreneur and business coach, urges people to embrace change as a catalyst for growth.
In today’s podcast Jordan discusses his new book and shares some of the things he learned that listeners can apply to their own life and their own pivots.
Topics include:
How the inner workings of a clock can serve as an organizing principle for achieving your goals.
Why it’s important recognize and leverage the things you have (and also those you don’t).
Why “deciding” and identifying your own north star is important.
Why it’s good practice, and not paranoid, to remember that there is always someone watching.
The key to managing the stress of the unknown.
Why we all have something in common with professional athletes.
Jordan Babineaux transitioned from nearly a decade playing in the NFL to become a sports broadcaster, entrepreneur, and business executive. He currently serves as the ‘voice’ of the Seattle Seahawks on both television and radio, while also helping organizations, teams and leaders navigate their pivots.
Jordan and his brother Jonathan, former defensive end for the Atlanta Falcons, found a company that produced several filmed comedy specials as well as the movie Woman Thou Art Loosed. They also launched a specialized car service n Seattle and created The Babineaux Foundation, a nonprofit that gives back to their hometown of Port Arthur, Texas and contributes to Lupus research.
