About this listen
Jelani Memory talks with Kevin Carroll, an author, speaker, and catalyst of inspiration.
We promise you've never met anyone like Kevin. Even though he was abandoned by his parents at six years old, he went on to play soccer professionally, speak seven languages for military intelligence and, you know, become the The Philadelphia 76ers first Black head athletic trainer. He's also maybe the only person who's ever created his own job and title at Nike during his tenure. Kevin’s story is full of inspiration, insight, and wisdom.
We get into his childhood, how he was raised by his grandparents, and the supremacy of the playground when it comes to building belonging and connections. And also his life as a single dad raising two sons.
Kevin and Jelani have known each other ever since Jelani was a teenager. So if it sounds like they go back, they do. He's been a friend, mentor, and father figure to Jelani, and Jelani’s thrilled to share one of his favorite people with you.
