    Breaking the Financial Industry Standards with Start Up founders Alex & Marin
    Apr 7 2025

    In this episode of The Athlete CEO, host Matt Owens sits down with two trailblazing entrepreneurs and former Division I soccer teammates, Alex and Marin, who are changing the game in student-athlete development. Drawing from their own collegiate athletic experiences, Alex and Marin have created a first-of-its-kind financial literacy program tailored specifically for NCAA athletic programs.

    Their mission? To bridge the financial education gap for student-athletes and set them up for long-term success. With their comprehensive 10-step curriculum, they're empowering young athletes to make smarter money decisions both during and after their playing careers.

    Matt dives deep with Alex and Marin into how they built this innovative platform, the key lessons they wish they had learned earlier, and why financial literacy is a crucial pillar in any athlete’s journey. This conversation is full of insight, purpose, and action steps for coaches, athletic departments, and student-athletes alike.
