Embracing the Next Chapter - Goran Dragić

In this episode of The Why Project Podcast, Mau sits down with former NBA All-Star and Slovenian basketball legend Goran Dragić for a conversation about identity, resilience, and learning to embrace life's unexpected chapters.
Goran shares with us about growing up in Slovenia during a time of conflict, discovering basketball by chance, and navigating the challenges of leaving home at a young age to pursue a dream that eventually led him to the NBA.
He opens up about self-doubt, the loneliness that can come with success, the mentors who shaped him, and the support of his family. He talks about what it was like to unexpectedly step away from the game that had defined him for decades, and how he found purpose, joy, and a renewed sense of identity in the chapter that followed. Through fatherhood, philanthropy, and new passions outside of sports, he reminds us that some of life's most meaningful seasons begin when we're willing to let go of the ones we thought would last forever.
