DWYANE WADE

<p>In this episode, I sit down with NBA legend, Dwyane Wade, for a conversation that goes way beyond basketball. He opens up about the freedom he found on the basketball court at a young age and the whirlwind of getting drafted to the Miami Heat. We talk candidly about fatherhood: becoming a father at a young age, what he’s learned as a father through Zaya’s transition, and how he shows up for all of his kids across very different stages of life. Dwyane also shares the mental health tools he leans on today, why he collaborated with Cann for their latest flavor, and the conversations he continues to push men to have around vulnerability and mental health.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Key Takeaway / Points:</strong></p><ul><li><p>Getting drafted to the Miami Heat and realizing his family&#39;s life had changed forever</p></li><li><p>How he was able to compartmentalize his life on and off the court</p></li><li><p>The village that helped him navigate fatherhood, especially in the early years</p></li><li><p>The identity shift that came with retiring from the NBA</p></li><li><p>His current mental health practices: journaling, THC/CBD, &amp; the 5AM wake-up calls</p></li><li><p>What he’s learned about fatherhood through his daughter Zaya</p></li><li><p>Creating a safe space for vulnerability in sports</p></li><li><p>What it’s like parenting kids across a wide age range</p></li><li><p>Coloring Confessionals: his favorite place to enjoy a Cann, his favorite teammate to ever play with, and what he thinks about Lebron’s move to Philly</p></li></ul><p><br></p><p><em>This episode is sponsored by Cann.
