I would love to hear from you, just send me text and let me know what you think of the podcast.

Turning down a $440 million contract might sound crazy, but for baseball star Juan Soto, it was a leap of faith that paid off in a monumental way. Join me, Steve Sax, as I dive into the inspiring journey of Soto, who trusted his instincts and went on to sign a groundbreaking $765 million deal with the New York Mets. This episode is a celebration of self-belief and risk-taking, drawing a parallel between Soto's remarkable decision and my own life-changing choice to pursue a professional baseball career straight out of high school. Together, we'll explore the power of believing in our potential and the incredible rewards that can come when we bet on ourselves.

From my early days with the LA Dodgers to my experiences as an author and motivational speaker, my story is a testament to the transformative impact of self-confidence and persistence. Whether you're at a crossroads in your life or grappling with self-doubt, this episode fuels motivation and encouragement to help you listen to your inner voice. Learn why sometimes the best decision is to trust yourself, just like Soto did, and watch as opportunities unfold beyond your wildest dreams. Subscribe, share, and get ready for a motivational boost that could change your perspective on taking risks and pursuing your dreams.
