Episode 38: What to do when feeling deflated

Today, I am interviewing Michael Barham Elevates

Michael Barham was born and raised in Bessemer, AL. His coaching journey started when he accidentally became a little league basketball head coach in 2010. Later, he had the opportunity to coach high school basketball as an assistant coach. Upon seeking to become a better coach for his players, Michael sought after personal and professional development. The tools he learned from Dr. Eric Thomas and Kendall Ficklin inspired him to create his personal brand, Push Elevation.

Since creating Push Elevation, Michael has had the opportunity to help increase the performance of individuals and organizations in the areas of communication, team building, and leadership. His focus shifted after witnessing his former players experience tough transitions in life after sports. He knew he had to develop a way to fill the need and support athletes after sports. He created programs to help athletes pursue their purpose and build their own brands. His first book, Purpose Pioneers became an Amazon Bestseller. Michael has been featured in the popular blog, Voyage ATL, for his dedication to being a trailblazer for his community.

Michael has over 5 years of experience as a business coach and consultant. As a DISC expert and a professional speaker, he has trained thousands of students to unlock their potential and perform at a high level. Seeking to serve a gap in sports, Michael wrote his second book When The Ball Goes Flat. His mission is to help one million athletes discover their gifts after sports and monetize them by creating their own brand.
