<p>On today’s episode, Adam talks with David Solano, a Phoenix educator and basketball coach with nearly three decades of experience, and the founder of Solano’s No Limit Hoops, a nonprofit using basketball to keep kids off the streets and give them a place to belong.</p><p>One of the best stories he shares: David walks into an interview and tells the athletic director, “Hire me and I’ll put a state championship trophy on your counter.” They laughed. He got hired, and then he went out and won the championship.</p><p>We get into disability, leadership, respect, and what it really means to show up for kids who might already be having a rough day. He also breaks down his “bucket” mindset: don’t assume someone’s okay when they walk in, fill them up with real support, and watch what happens when people feel seen.</p><p><br></p><p>Intro music by Pat Moeschen</p><p><br></p><p>The Handicapable Network: <a href="www.hcmedia.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">www.hcmedia.org</a></p><p>Solano&#39;s No Limit Hoops: <a href="https://solanosnolimithoops.wixsite.com/mysite/solano-s-no-limit-hoops" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://solanosnolimithoops.wixsite.com/mysite/solano-s-no-limit-hoops</a></p><p><br></p><p>Hosted by Adam Malone</p><p>Executive produced by Adam Malone and Cody Chalfan</p><p>Produced by Kyle Friar</p><p><br></p><p>Changing the world, one story at a time</p>
