Episode 9: Leadership Through Patience
Beyond The Game: The Podcast
05/19/20 • 50 min
From the Holy Trinity Titans in Oakville, Ontario to completing his Senior year at Edgewood Academy in Alabama to Junior College, then the Ohio University Bobcats, Nathan Rourke has stepped into roles of leadership and has had to learn how to lead in each situation. As the 15th overall pick to the BC Lions in the 2020 CFL Draft, Nathan looks to take his work ethic, leadership, and skillset to the pros.
The path to the professional leagues hasn't been easy for Nathan. Trials and tribulations stood in his way like any other athlete, but for a Canadian trying to make his mark on a sport that hasn't been so forgiving to the "Canadian Quarterback," all he can do is stand tall, work hard, and prove that he belongs. Through his journey, he has found his personal faith and identity in God and has gained a new perspective!
This is a journey that will inspire and motivate. This is a story that shows leadership in patience and perseverance.

Episode 7: Stillness & Self-Care
Beyond The Game: The Podcast
03/22/20 • 22 min
In a world where we are surrounded by the perception of progress, it can be difficult to slow down. We are so inundated with information that we can feel pressured to keep up. Quick word from the wise: We're not in a competition all the time.
It's important for us to to take time for ourselves and focus on what we have going on. Being still can be difficult, but spending the time to talk to BTG Coach, Ashley Noonan, was great because she has so much insight into this. Meditation, stillness, and self-care are things that she places great importance in and she joins me to show us how we can do it ourselves.

One of the biggest aims of this podcast is to inspire, motivate, and elevate everyone. Sitting and talking with people like Orion Edwards not only does all of what we aim to do, but it also uplifts your spirit. He is so filled with love for people and for Jesus that it is radiant and so evident in our conversation and our friendship.
Through football at the University of Guelph, to Athletes in Action in Seattle, and now training to compete in Bobsled for CANADA at the 2022 Olympics in Beijing, OE has been through so much and his story is still being written. Listen in as he reflects and shares his life with us.

Episode 3: I've Retired... And It Feels Very Weird
Beyond The Game: The Podcast
09/23/19 • 11 min
This episode is a little different than the others.
I've done a lot of thinking and processing and I decided to bring y'all along for the journey because I know someone else might be going through it as well. To preface, I played another year of semi-professional football in Canada. This decision came after 3 years being "retired" already. I made the decision to come out of retirement because I wanted to play with some of my friends that I saw playing on the team. I also made the decision that it would most likely be my last season playing. This was for a multitude of reasons, but definitely not the one that I describe in the episode. I hope you enjoy this episode! I know it definitely helped me straighten out my thoughts and emotions. As always, please continue to follow our socials!

Adversity comes in all shapes and sizes. It can come in many different avenues and truly look like anything. The point we're trying to make is that adversity isn't unique to anyone, but the ways we overcome it are unique to everyone.

We'll talk about strategies to overcome adversity:
1) Change your mindset
2) Surround yourself with people who encourage you
3) Be strategic. Break down moments into manageable steps.
4) Celebrate small successes and victories.

Episode 10: Racial Injustice Panel Discussion
Beyond The Game: The Podcast

We have an agenda: to create MORE dialogue and uncomfortable discussions in order to formulate actionable steps towards healing and reconciliation.
Racism is alive and breathing around the world. It hasn't "gotten worse," it's been here, it's just being videotaped.
We at Beyond The Game will never choose to be silent when it comes to racism. We will ALWAYS stand up and fight against the oppression of people of colour. We will ALWAYS stand up and be educators. We will ALWAYS stand up and be allies.
This ain't for no trend. This isn't because it's cool to speak up now. This is our life. This is our community!
As promised, we will provide resources for you to take your action a step forward:
