Performance and skills coach Joel Green has “developed callus for defeat and downturn”, and is a great example of someone who goes far beyond obstacles. Some people might think that he was born to be in the NBA, but it's actually the opposite. Joel grew up in North Philly and had to face many obstacles throughout his childhood. It all started when he was just a 6-year-old and witnessed a shooting. He started playing basketball when he was young, but then, tragedy struck when his brother died. This loss changed his life forever, and it made him realize how important family was to him. Joel used this terrible thing to fuel his fire, and as he got older, he realized how his physical training could also help his mental training. He mentioned that, even when he was training 11 hours a day in college, his grades improved enough for him to graduate with honors. Joel retired early from his basketball career to pursue his dream of being in business. With this dream and a fascination with ps…
