About this listen


Former Duncanville Pantherette and Oklahoma State guard Destanie Owkumabua shares how a winning mindset is forged in loss, why identity must be rooted in who you are not what you do, and how ego quiets down when you choose to lead by following. We trace her path from a state title run to the hard reality of a college program in a losing season, then to modeling in New York where rejection was routine and confidence had to be learned. She opens up about motherhood, leadership, journaling that reframes the story, and a health scare that reset her perspective.

If you are a competitor in a rough stretch, this conversation will help you recommit to discipline, community, and the inner work that changes outcomes.
