🎙️ Episode 19: “I Did: Rewriting the Labels That Tried to Define Me”In this deeply personal and redemptive episode, Coach Dave Shelton opens up about the powerful journey from being labeled “not smart enough” in high school to discovering his true voice and purpose later in life.Growing up in a special education program, working 40-hour weeks just to earn high school credits, Coach Dave internalized the voice of a teacher who once whispered, “He’s not smart.” That label followed him for 30 years—until one question changed everything:💬 “I didn’t ask if you could. I asked if you were available.”From teaching in rural Alaska to walking students through the very struggles he once faced himself, Coach Dave proves that success isn't about ability—it's about availability, willingness, and refusing to let someone else’s words have the final say.💥 This episode is a must-listen for anyone who’s ever doubted their worth, felt boxed in by a label, or thought it was too late to start over.✅ Tune in and be reminded: You get the final say over your story.
