  • Episode #40 - Life Long Learning with Cody Kessel
    Aug 26 2025

    In this episode we learn where confidence comes from and how to maximize your potential. Why you have to be careful what you're basing your self-worth on, why mastery and self-expression go hand in hand, and when is it a good time to be intentionally delusional? We discuss the ups and downs of Cody’s career and what kept him chasing his national team dreams, despite not getting a start for the program until he was 30 years old.

    In this episode we discuss the difference between your ego and your confidence, the unmatched competition for spots in USA volleyball, how to be a good teammate while aiming to perform your best.

  • Episode #38 - The Coach's Playbook with Ben Josephson
    Jun 19 2025

    In this long awaited episode we talk about why you don't learn anything from losing, what men can learn from women's volleyball and vice versa. How to create a culture where innovation happens daily. Why you should never compare your players to each other while watching someone else perform a skill might lead to faster learning than watching yourself.
