2. Attorney Mike Hostilo: King of the Pivot
Manage episode 321863280 series 2809336
The 3RIPLE 3HREAT podcast is back with another season! And our first guest of this season is Mike Hostilo! Mike moved to Beaufort, South Carolina in the 7th grade. Mike's dad is a marine and Mike grew up in Laurel Bay Military Housing. "In military communities, it was really important for the parents and the kids to be involved in youth sports." Just like us, you've probably seen commercials for the Mike Hostilo Law Firm around town. But did you know, Mike was a student-athlete in high school. Attorney Mike Hostilo is an excellent example of a former student-athlete pivoting into an extremely successful career off the field. The PIVOT is a power position in basketball. If you're in the pivot, you're in the 3RIPLE 3HREAT. You have three choices: pass, dribble or shoot. In basketball, you have seconds to make this position. In life, you have a little more time to come to a decision. Most middle and high school student-athletes do not go on to become professional athletes. Listen to Mike Hostilo's story to learn when he pivoted from athletic dreams to professional dreams and how he utilized the skills he learned on the field to grow a successful law firm. In 2022, the 3RIPLE 3HREAT podcast is going in a different direction with a focus on psychology. For example, this year we will have guests on the podcast discussing mental health when it comes to the student-athlete. With professional athletes like Simone Biles and Naomi Osaka opening up about their mental health struggles, it’s time we bring this issue down to the middle and high school levels. Tune into the 3RIPLE 3HREAT podcast to hear about The Ultimate Student-Athlete Experience: stories about student-athletes, for student-athletes and by student-athletes! Our DAE Foundation message is to bring quality information to student-athletes, parents of student-athletes and the community that supports them both. There is a wealth of knowledge being shared in our interviews with stories from former collegiate players, professional athletes, collegiate coaches, sports agents and more.
