The Untold Story of the First Legally Blind Division 1 Athlete | Aaron Golub
In this episode of The Victory Degree Podcast, I sit down with Aaron Golub, the first legally blind Division I football player, to talk about his inspiring journey from being picked last in childhood sports to playing at Tulane University and becoming an NFL free agent. Aaron opens up about the adversity he faced, the lessons he’s learned, and why he believes anything is possible with the right mindset, hard work, and persistence.
What we cover in this conversation:
- Overcoming adversity: how Aaron’s blindness became the driving force behind his discipline, grit, and success
- The value of failure: why rejection and loss can be the greatest teachers in sports, business, and life
- Leadership and resilience: lessons from football, public speaking, and entrepreneurship
- Self-belief and mindset: reframing fear, handling judgment, and setting goals with long-term horizons
