Joel Green is a former professional basketball player & National Director of Nike Sports Camps. Joel had a challenging upbringing, growing up in an abandoned house in North Philadelphia. His cousin was murdered, he had a knife pulled on him, and he stood just ten feet from another shooting. Years later, he tragically lost his older brother. The game of basketball was a lifesaver, as it took Joel off the streets and provided a much-needed distraction. His story and the lessons he learned are explored in his book, 'Filtering: The Way to Extract Strength from The Struggle'. With a B.A. in Psychology, Joel is a guy who sets ambitious goals and attributes his work ethic to his passionate desire for excellence.   LINKS   Joel Green's website http://www.joelbgreen.com/.   Follow him on Instagram and LinkedIn.     Book on Amazon Filtering: The Way to Extract Strength from The Struggle   The Mojo Sessions website www.themojosessions.com   The Mojo Sessions on Patreon www.patreon.com/TheMojoSessions Full transcripts of the show (plus time codes) are available on Patreon.   The Mojo Sessions on Facebook www.facebook.com/TheMojoSessions   Gary on LinkedIn www.linkedin.com/in/gary-bertwistle   Gary on Twitter www.twitter.com/GaryBertwistle   The Mojo Sessions on Instagram www.instagram.com/themojosessions   We'd be grateful for a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify if you like what you hear.
