Podcast appearances and mentions of Leigh Steinberg

In today's episode, I sit down with Shane P Mahi, founder and CEO of RevIntel, investor, and host focused on helping businesses grow through AI and revenue strategy. We talk about closing a $900 million deal during my first week at Leigh Steinberg's agency, the lessons that came from losing over $100 million, and why fairness and character matter more than squeezing every dollar out of a negotiation. We also discuss overcoming the fear of saying no, handling criticism without becoming defensive, building purpose into business, articulating value in sales, and the qualities I look for when deciding whether an entrepreneur is worth backing.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Superstar sports agent Leigh Steinberg joins Mountain Money to discuss his book "The Comeback: A Playbook for Turning Life's Setbacks Into Victories," where he opens up about his battle with alcoholism and his journey to 16 years of sobriety. He weighs in on how the sports business has transformed since 1975, from the "Wild West" of college NIL deals to the major integrity risks posed by sports gambling.

What does it take to reshape billion-dollar entertainment companies and redefine an entire industry? In this special compilation episode, Travis sits down with two legendary figures in sports entertainment. George Barrios, former CFO of WWE, shares the inside story behind WWE's transformation into a global media powerhouse and the historic $20 billion merger with UFC. Then, legendary sports agent Leigh Steinberg—the real-life inspiration behind Jerry Maguire —discusses his remarkable career, the making of the iconic film, and how college athletics, NIL, and sports business are evolving. How George Barrios helped transform WWE into a global direct-to-consumer media company The strategy, conviction, and execution behind the historic WWE-UFC merger The true story behind Jerry Maguire and Leigh Steinberg's influence on the film How sports agents changed professional athletics and athlete representation The impact of NIL, conference realignment, and the future of college sports Big transformations require conviction backed by preparation. George Barrios explains that confidence isn't enough—you earn conviction by doing the work long before facing adversity. Career-changing opportunities often look risky at first. Barrios ignored widespread criticism when joining WWE, ultimately helping lead one of the largest and most successful business transformations in sports entertainment. College sports are becoming professionalized. Leigh Steinberg believes NIL, the transfer portal, and conference realignment are fundamentally changing college athletics and may eventually diminish the NCAA's role among the largest programs. "The only way you get true conviction—not bluster—is doing the work." "Everybody's got a plan until they get punched in the face." "They could have fixed it easily by giving athletes who had need supplemental income—but instead the system became free agency."

This week on Next on the Tee, three champions join me to share stories that go far beyond sports. Legendary sports agent Leigh Steinberg, 1984 NCAA Champion John Inman, and Olympic Gold Medalist Scott Hamilton open up about overcoming adversity, leadership, perseverance, and the lessons they've learned at the highest levels of competition. Leigh Steinberg takes us inside his remarkable journey from representing some of the biggest names in sports to battling alcoholism, losing everything, and fighting his way back. We discuss his inspiring new book, The Comeback: A Playbook for Turning Life's Setbacks Into Victories, the heartfelt foreword written by Troy Aikman, the importance of giving back, the changing landscape of college athletics, NIL, sports gambling, and what true success really means. John Inman returns to share his thoughtful perspective on today's college sports environment, whether NIL has shifted the balance too far toward athletes, the growing influence of gambling across sports, and why fan behavior is becoming a concern in professional golf. He also reflects on his unforgettable years at the University of North Carolina during one of the greatest championship eras in college athletics. Then, Olympic legend Scott Hamilton joins me for one of the most inspiring conversations we've ever had. Scott looks back on carrying the American flag during the 1980 Winter Olympics, shares behind-the-scenes stories from Lake Placid and his friendship with legendary skier Ingemar Stenmark, discusses covering his 10th Winter Olympics for NBC, and explains why one simple message has become his philosophy for living a joyful life: our possessions are just "garbage"—it's our relationships, experiences, and gratitude that truly matter. Whether you're passionate about golf, sports, leadership, personal growth, or simply need a reminder that setbacks don't define your future, this episode delivers unforgettable stories, practical wisdom, and a healthy dose of Vitamin G—gratitude. #GolfPodcast #Golf #GolfLife #GolfTips #GolfInstruction #GolfCommunity #Golfers #PGA #PGATour #GolfLegends #GolfHistory #MentalGame #SportsPodcast #Podcast #Leadership #Resilience #Comeback #NeverGiveUp #PersonalGrowth #Motivation #Inspiration #SuccessMindset #LeighSteinberg #ScottHamilton #JohnInman #TroyAikman #Olympics #OlympicChampion #FigureSkating #CollegeSports #NIL #SportsBusiness #SportsLeadership #SportsAgent #SportsGambling #NorthCarolinaGolf #ChampionMindset #PeakPerformance #WinningMindset #VitaminG #Gratitude #NextOnTheTee

Physician burnout has become a defining challenge in healthcare, with research showing that a substantial portion of clinicians—anywhere from roughly a quarter to over half—experience emotional exhaustion, driven more by systemic pressures like administrative burden and reduced autonomy than by individual resilience alone. As healthcare systems face growing staffing shortages and rising patient demand, the conversation is shifting away from individual coping strategies toward structural solutions that prioritize physician support, retention, and long-term alignment.So what would it look like if physicians were supported not just as clinicians—but as professionals with long-term career strategies, personal goals, and evolving identities?The latest episode of Highway to Health zeroes in on one of healthcare's most urgent challenges: fixing the physician experience. Host David Kemp sits down with Dr. Michael Suk and Leigh Steinberg, co-founders of MDEnvoy, to explore how advocacy-driven support models can transform the profession. Together, they unpack how aligning physicians with the right opportunities—and supporting them beyond the exam room—can reshape not only individual careers, but the broader healthcare ecosystem.Top insights from the talk…Misalignment—not lack of resilience—is a primary driver of physician burnout, often stemming from unmet expectations around autonomy, support, and culture.Retention is the most effective lever for improving healthcare access; losing a single physician can trigger cascading impacts on patient care and system stability.Early clarity and long-term career planning can prevent “silent failures” in physician placements, reducing turnover and improving satisfaction.Dr. Michael Suk is an orthopaedic trauma surgeon, physician-executive, and healthcare innovator with extensive experience leading clinical, operational, and policy transformation across major health systems. He has held prominent national leadership roles, including Chair of The Joint Commission Board of Commissioners and Immediate Past Chair of the American Medical Association Board of Trustees, while also serving as a professor and mentor to hundreds of physicians in training. Through his clinical practice and physician-led ventures, he focuses on advancing value-based care, empowering physicians, and improving the long-term sustainability of the healthcare workforce.Leigh Steinberg is a pioneering sports agent, entrepreneur, and Chairman of Steinberg Sports & Entertainment, widely recognized for transforming athlete representation by building clients into global brands. Over a 50-year career, he has negotiated more than $4 billion in contracts, represented over 300 professional athletes—including multiple No. 1 NFL draft picks—and directed over $1 billion to charitable causes. Known as the inspiration behind Jerry Maguire, Steinberg also brings expertise in negotiation, branding, and leadership, alongside his work as an author, educator, and founder of initiatives focused on brain health and philanthropy.

In this powerful episode of The Mike Litton Experience, Mike sits down with legendary sports agent Leigh Steinberg to explore one of the most important issues in sports today—player safety and brain health. Known as a pioneer in athlete representation and the real-life inspiration behind Jerry Maguire, Leigh Steinberg shares his decades-long mission to bring awareness to concussions, CTE, and long-term neurological risks in football and other collision sports. Long before the topic became mainstream, Steinberg was leading the charge—hosting the first concussion conference in 1994 and advocating for player health when few others would. In this episode, you'll discover: The early warning signs and long-term dangers of repeated head trauma How Steinberg helped spark change within the NFL and beyond The science behind CTE, concussions, and brain recovery Breakthrough treatments like neuroplasticity, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and more Why youth sports safety is more important than ever The mission and impact of the Leigh Steinberg Foundation This conversation is a must-watch for athletes, parents, coaches, and anyone who cares about the future of sports and player wellbeing.
