Intangible Podcast

As the Winter Olympics capture the world’s attention, few sports demand more courage, composure, and trust than luge—and few athletes embody those intangibles like Emily Fischnaller.

In this episode of the Intangible Podcast, we sit down with one of the most accomplished and resilient athletes in winter sports. Emily’s journey spans Junior World Championships, World Cup titles, multiple Olympic Games, and one of the most difficult comebacks in elite sport after a career-threatening Olympic crash.

While fans watch athletes chase hundredths of a second on the world’s biggest stage, Emily takes us behind the curtain—inside the mindset required to trust your training, manage fear at extreme speeds, and rebuild belief when everything is on the line. This conversation goes deeper than medals. It’s about composure under pressure, learning from failure, and why trust—not confidence—is the true separator at the Olympic level.

For young athletes, parents, and coaches watching the Olympics right now, this episode is a masterclass in what it really takes to perform when the stakes are highest. Talent may open the door, but intangibles are what keep you competing on the world stage.

On this episode of the Intangible Podcast, we sit down with Jordan Ta'amu for a real conversation about what it takes to survive — and lead — when the path isn’t linear.

Jordan’s journey from Ole Miss to the NFL and spring football is a masterclass in betting on yourself. He opens up about staying ready when opportunities aren’t guaranteed, developing confidence without constant validation, and learning how to lead a locker room through uncertainty. This isn’t a highlight-reel conversation. It’s about the unseen work, the mindset shifts, and the discipline that separate quarterbacks who last from those who fade.

For young athletes, parents, and coaches, this episode pulls back the curtain on the intangibles that actually matter at the next level. Jordan shares why preparation is non-negotiable, how belief becomes a skill, and why leadership starts long before you take the field. If you’re chasing a dream that doesn’t follow a straight line, this conversation will hit home.

In this episode of the Intangible Podcast, we sit with Jaelen Strong, former NFL wide receiver, Arizona State standout, and now a state-championship winning high school coach.

Growing up in Philadelphia, Jaelen didn’t take the traditional path to the NFL. He bet on himself through junior college, grinded his way to Arizona State, became a 3rd-round NFL Draft pick, and lived the reality of playing at the highest level. But this conversation goes far beyond stats, highlights, or draft position.

Jaelen opens up about the mental and emotional side of football that most people never see. He talks about self-doubt, immaturity, instant gratification, injuries, identity loss, and the difficult transition when the game starts to fade away. He shares how faith, self-awareness, and hard lessons reshaped his perspective on success, leadership, and purpose.

Now as a coach, Jaelen is focused on developing young men, not just athletes. His message is powerful for young players chasing a dream, parents trying to support their kids, and coaches responsible for shaping lives beyond the field.

This is a must-listen episode about growth, belief, mental health, and the true intangibles that drive peak performance.

On this episode of the Intangible Podcast, former NFL cornerback Daryl Worley sits down with us for one of the most real, honest conversations we’ve had on the show.

From growing up in North Philadelphia to becoming a third-round draft pick out of West Virginia Mountaineers, Daryl breaks down the mindset, discipline, and adaptability required to last nearly a decade in the NFL. He opens up about navigating league politics, transitioning roles, reinventing himself through special teams, and what it truly means to be labeled “a pro” in an NFL locker room.

Daryl also shares powerful lessons on mental health, fatherhood, leadership without the spotlight, and how faith and consistency carried him through the toughest stretches of his career. If you’re a young athlete, parent, or coach looking to understand the intangibles that separate those who make it from those who don’t—this episode is a must-listen.

This conversation goes beyond football. It’s about resilience, purpose, and staying present when the game—and life—gets hard.

If you’re a young athlete, parent, or coach trying to understand the mental and emotional side of high performance, this conversation is a must-listen.
