Built to Battle: Joe Gallace on Grit, Growth, and Getting Back Up
In this episode of Valiant Talks, Frank reconnects with former teammate Joe Gallace for a raw and powerful conversation that spans sports, finance, fatherhood, and a life-altering health journey. Joe opens up about his diagnosis with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in 2017 and a later battle with aplastic anemia in 2023—two serious conditions that tested his resilience and perspective. From chasing baseball dreams to navigating life with three kids and a demanding career, Joe shares how his competitive fire shaped his path and how grace, grit, and community helped him push through the toughest moments. Whether you're navigating career pivots, parenting challenges, or personal setbacks, Joe's story is a masterclass in perseverance and reflection.
