Joe Engler – Baseball, Books, and Music

In this episode of the Journey of My Mother’s Son podcast, I talk with Joe Engler.

Joe played for our organization back in 2003. He was on our Atlantic Collegiate Baseball League (ACBL) team between his sophomore and junior seasons at Minot State University in North Dakota. I refer to him as one of my old players, but he never actually played a game for me, he just played in our organization. He was one of the players who I really connected with while he was with us.

Joe and I talk about the life lessons that the game of baseball taught him and how he is using them today in both his work and personal life.

Pay it Forward

One of my mother’s favorite movies was “Pay it Forward.”

She lived her life in a fashion where giving back and paying it forward were at the forefront of everything she did.  Whether it was when she was volunteering at ground zero after 9/11, or in Florida with the Salvation Army and its Hurricane Relief efforts, helping a friend stay sober, volunteering with the Florida Attorney General’s Rape crisis network, or just helping a friend put shingles on his roof, she always had time to lend a hand.

It was her influence that instilled a drive in me to always want to help others.

So, it’s with that spirit of giving that I am excited to introduce the “Pay it Forward Book and Literacy” program.

Rachel Awes – The Need for Relationships

“I work as a psychologist, author, and art playgroundist, who loves listening to and highlighting the beauty in people. I do all of this colorfully, with how I dress (I’m a clothing influencer/ambassador too) and how I illustrate my books (I have another colorful personal growth book releasing early November 2022 called “The Relationship Book: A Soulful, Transformational, and Artistic Inventory of Your Connective Life”) and how I LIVE.”
