Skye Dawson’s story is one of legacy, grit, and purpose.Raised by greatness—his dad a ProBall player for the Oakland A’s and his mom a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader—Skye made it to the NFL with no plan B. His mindset? Plan B was always to make Plan A happen.But the road there wasn’t easy.Throughout high school, people doubted him. They said he was too small. Too unlikely. Not built for what he was dreaming of. But Skye refused to accept their limits. He stayed focused, grounded in purpose, and determined to rise anyway.And in the middle of all of that, his mom was fighting a serious battle with cancer. Even when it threatened her own health, she still showed up. Every game. Every moment. Pouring strength and love into him in ways that shaped his entire life.Skye went on to play in the NFL for the Washington Redskins, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Detroit Lions, and later became a coach at Florida A&M University. But this story isn’t about football.It’s about identity.It’s about mindset.It’s about faith when the world underestimates you.And how the light poured into you becomes the light you carry.Skye shares what it really means to let go of the world’s version of success and step into something deeper—character, conviction, and calling. This episode is full of truth, hope, and the kind of inspiration we all need right now.Listen now—and be reminded of what’s possible when you trust the One who’s writing your story.
