    Nov 13 2024

    Yes, you read the title correctly.


    I wrote about this in my Player Development Newsletter and it really took off, you can find that here:


    I was in a transition in 2022 and once I made the decision to sow roots in Kansas City, the opportunities that weren't there suddenly came. They were great opportunities but I had to decline.


    In this video I talk about the following:

    - Why I declined the interviews

    - What I learned from it

    - What you can learn from it

    - What would get me in the role again
