Mayo Sowell’s journey is one of the most powerful examples of redemption, identity, and purpose you will ever hear. After an injury ended his football career, Mayo chased instant gratification, turned to fast money, and eventually faced major prison time. But what happened in that season reshaped his entire life.
In this episode, we explore:
• The identity crisis after sports • How “quick wins” can destroy long-term purpose • The wake-up call that hit in a jail cell • Finding God in the darkest environments • Rebuilding identity through humility • Learning what truly drives you • Stepping into your calling rather than escaping it
If you're navigating transition, questioning your purpose, or trying to overcome your past, this conversation will help you take a meaningful step forward.
