Listen to a new episode of YNS Live with NFL Thread recorded live on Fireside with hosts Juliet Hahn and Cynthia Zordich featuring special guest Jelani Jenkins.

 

Jelani Jenkins, a five-year NFL veteran turned renowned speaker and Certified Mental Performance Coach, is an expert in the field of personal transformation. Known for his dynamic, engaging talks, he inspires his audiences to unlock their potential, break down barriers, and realize their highest vision.

 

Beyond his successful NFL career as a starting linebacker for the Miami Dolphins, Oakland Raiders, and Houston Texans, Jelani has made waves in the entrepreneurial world as the founder and CEO of Postseason, a social learning app that empowers athletes to continue their growth, success and fulfillment beyond sports. His innovative approach and commitment to supporting others in their post-athletic journey was recognized by Forbes in 2021. It also led to Postseason winning first place in Founder's Live's pitch competition and being selected as a finalist at the LA Sports and Innovation Conference's Start Up Showdown.

 

A coach at heart, Jelani continues to lead his clients to self-discovery and self-mastery. However, as a speaker, he is not only inspiring teams and audiences, but also reshaping the narrative of success in sports, corporate settings, and life itself.
