This week Andrew talks with Furman University Men’s Basketball Head Coach Bob Richey. In six seasons as head coach at Furman, Bob has amassed a .720 winning percentage which ranks in the top 15 among active Division 1 head coaches. In March, Bob took Furman to its first NCAA Tournament in 43 years — and the team upset fourth-ranked University of Virginia in the first round. This episode is about far more than basketball and is a deeply personal conversation about leadership, success, and the importance of building something that matters. Bob shares timeless lessons on turning adversity into opportunity, operating at the intersection of joy & urgency, and the power of stepping back to enjoy life’s big moments. This conversation is a stepping stone for anyone looking to achieve more success, fulfillment, & happiness in anything.
