Beyond the Game: Paul Epstein's Playbook for Peak Performance and Purpose

Author: Dr. Bill Dorfman® October 17, 2023 Duration: 39:25
Paul Epstein is a former high-level executive for multiple NFL and NBA teams and the bestselling author of The Power of Playing Offense. In 2022, he was named one of SUCCESS magazine’s top thought leaders who get results—alongside Tony Robbins, Brené Brown, Gary Vaynerchuk, and Mel Robbins—and his work has been featured on ESPN, NBC, Fox Business, and in USA Today. In nearly 15 years as a leader in the world of pro sports, Paul helped take NBA teams from the bottom of the league in revenue to the top two, broke every premium sales revenue metric in Super Bowl history while in the NFL’s league office, opened a billion-dollar stadium, and founded the San Francisco 49ers Talent Academy, where he was known as the “Why Coach.” As an award-winning keynote speaker, Paul’s impact continues off stage providing leadership development and culture transformation programs for companies and teams including Amazon, Disney, Johnson & Johnson, NASA, the Los Angeles Lakers, and the Dallas Cowboys. He’s also the founder of the Win Monday community (an elite personal and professional development network) and host of the Win Monday podcast, where he interviews high-profile guests who reveal their secrets of confidence and work-life mastery. When he’s not on stage as a global keynote speaker, Epstein puts his insights to daily practice, serving as chief impact officer for PurposePoint and senior advisor for the Why Institute.

Each week on the Dr. Bill Dorfman® Podcast presents Meet the Mentor® Series, you’ll find a conversation that feels more like a personal introduction than a formal interview. Hosted by Dr. Bill Dorfman himself-known widely as a celebrity dentist and New York Times best-selling author, but also as the founder of The LEAP Foundation-this podcast creates a space where accomplished mentors from diverse fields pull up a chair. They share not just their polished success stories, but the real, often messy, experiences that shaped their paths. The discussions naturally delve into the lessons learned through failure, the pivotal moments of guidance they received, and the practical wisdom they now pass on. While the podcast sits within the Education, Family, and Kids categories, its appeal is broad, offering insights valuable to anyone curious about personal growth and leadership. Listeners will hear genuine, unrehearsed dialogue that highlights how mentorship can transform a career and a life, all through Dr. Dorfman’s engaging and curious perspective. It’s a consistent weekly resource for those looking to learn from the best, in a format that emphasizes connection over lecture.
