In this episode, I'm joined by Joe Gyau—a U.S. Men’s National Team veteran, Bundesliga trailblazer, and third-generation professional footballer. Joe takes us inside his incredible journey: from his upbringing, leaving the U.S. as a teenager to pursue his dream in Germany, to breaking into the first team at Borussia Dortmund, and beyond.
We talk about resilience, mindset, and what it means to carry a family legacy in the beautiful game. Joe shares lessons from the highest levels of international play, the grind of club transitions, and the mental fortitude required to keep evolving on and off the field.
Whether you’re an athlete, coach, or parent—this is a conversation about grit, growth, and the deeper purpose behind the pursuit.
