Today's Play: Olympian and educator Steve Brown shares the incredible story of how sport shaped his identity—from a fearful 10-year-old in D.C. to representing Trinidad in the Olympic Games. Steve reflects on the hurdles he faced—literally and figuratively—and the unexpected people and institutions who showed up for his dream. He reminds us that keeping an open heart, and open mind, just might be the key to discovering the support you didn’t know you had.

Today's Coach: Olympian Steve Brown is the founder of the Steve Brown Academy and creator of the Complete Your Square curriculum, designed to support student-athletes in athletics, academics, character, and service. He competed in the 2000 Olympic Games for Trinidad & Tobago after a standout multi-sport career at Wake Forest. With degrees from Wake, Duke, and UPenn, Steve brings over 15 years of experience in independent school admissions and leadership development.
