In this solo episode, we're just taking a break from interviews to reflect on a year of podcasting! This is our 1-year anniversary and we're celebrating the growth, progress and evolution of the show.
Host, Justin Ochoa, takes some time to share some Gem Sessions updates:
- The Gem Sessions Foundation, a 501c3 nonprofit organization we launched this year! Our mission is to empower young student-athletes, cultivate their skills and equip them with the necessary tools to excel in their chosen sport while fostering personal development, academic success and leadership qualities that last long after their athletic careers end. Gem Sessions Foundation envisions a future where every youth athlete, regardless of their background or circumstances, has access to high-quality training, mentorship, educational support, professional development and community involvement.
- The Gem Sessions App, an online coaching portal with 1-on-1 online coaching for lifting, speed and skill development, as well as a variety of pre-made programs for basketball players!
- Season 3 & 4 preview: Looking at the last half of season 2 and what seasons 3 & 4 will be in 2024!
As always, thank you so much for supporting the show. None of this would be possible without YOU.
