Sean kicks things off with an update on his long-standing Starbucks habit, revealing surprising progress in cutting back—even if a freshly remodeled store briefly pulled him back in. It’s a light and honest moment that sets the tone before shifting into something deeper: a conversation with Brett Brackett, former NFL player and current president of Uplifting Athletes.

Brett shares how his journey from the football field to rare disease advocacy has been driven by compassion, purpose, and a desire to give others a reason to hope. He takes us behind the scenes of the Young Investigator Draft—a one-of-a-kind event celebrating rare disease researchers like MVPs—and explains how Uplifting Experiences are creating unforgettable moments for families across the country. From locker rooms to lab coats, this episode explores the power of connection, the importance of genuine care, and the beauty of staying involved in what you love—even when life takes a turn.
