About this listen
"Dedicate yourself to a core set of values. Without them, you will never lead effectively." — Ken Chenault
In this inspiring episode of The Journey, host Larry Robinson sits down with Mack Weaver, a proud son of North Memphis, lifelong leader, deacon, and now CEO of Memphis in May.
From growing up in a single-parent home to leading one of Memphis' most celebrated cultural institutions, Mack's story is a masterclass in perseverance, discipline, and faith.
In this powerful and heartfelt conversation, Mack shares:
-
How football and faith taught him to never give up — "You can't burn me out."
-
The prayer that changed his life during his first year at South Carolina State
-
What it means to grow up in North Memphis and never forget your roots
-
Lessons on leadership, listening, and finding strength through humility
-
Why smiling, even through the struggle, can change everything
-
How family, faith, and community shaped his path to success
From being a college athlete to becoming a community advocate, church leader, and CEO, Mack reminds us that grit and grace go hand in hand. His message is simple yet profound:
"There's only one you. Be the best you that you can be. Control yourself, control your emotions and just smile."
