What’s up guys! Welcome back to another episode of The Athlete Angle.
I had the privilege to talk with former pro basketball player and fellow Gator, Patric Young. Patric and I talked about the importance of making friends outside of your team while you’re still in school and how this can help you gain perspective about the world outside of your sport.
We covered how the injuries he endured while he was playing helped redefine his priorities in life outside of basketball, and what he did when he decided to retire.
One of those things to pay attention to was his mindset coming into this transition.
One of his quotes that I thought was os good and such a good reminder is that “there is no such thing as an insignificant season.”
We covered how treating people well will pay dividends for you later, the kind of mindset he had walking into a job for the first time post sport, and the hallmarks of good community.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
