#33 - Cisco Reyes - The Rise Lab, Love Languages In Leadership, & Experiential Learning.

Big day for the pod! Today’s guest is Cisco Reyes, father, husband, incredible genuine human being, and professionally tenured Associate Professor at Linfield University. He specifically focuses his work on strength and conditioning, sports science, analytics, and youth performance development. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY mentoring students to be the best they can be in the health & performance professions and in life. Cisco is also the founder of The RISE Lab, (Reyes Integrated Sports Enhancement) which specifically focuses on supporting youth athlete’s on their performance development journey.

You will love this episode because Cisco dives into applying love languages to leadership, empowering students to where to look but not what to see, and his mission as an educator. One of my personal favorite parts was we both could have talked about sports science for days, but chose to discuss developing human beings!
