EP 58 - Conversation with Taylor Rochestie - Balancing leadership and life as a Pro Basketball player in the Midst of a Global Pandemic

Leadership Live

“Everyone is a leader on the basketball court because as a team and as individuals, the players lead themselves toward victory.” Taylor Rochestie is a professional basketball player and leads an adventurous life and career. In 2 years, he’s lived in 12 different countries, managing logistics of travel in a pandemic with 2 small kids. Taylor is driven by the power of being present at the moment, taking every opportunity to rise up in times of adversity and keeping your vision in mind, while remembering that the path to get there is just as important and sometimes needs to be adjusted. In 2020, he published his first book “New 20/20 Vision” which started as a letter to his unborn daughter and evolved into a guide for leadership and life.
