What do you do when the dream you built your whole identity around gets taken away?

In this episode of the Elevated Hope Project, we sit down with RaSean McMiller, a former high-level basketball recruit who had to make a hard pivot after injury and setbacks changed his path. Instead of isolating, RaSean chose action. That decision started with something simple, selling socks at 17, and turned into a whole new mindset: solve problems, add value, and keep moving.

RaSean shares how he went from growing up outside Chicago with big NBA dreams to launching a hair care brand (inspired by his grandmother, Eula) and getting it into beauty supply stores. Then he takes us into his newest venture, Flash Path, a golf swing training aid built to give beginners immediate feedback while saving time and money. Along the way, he breaks down what he learned from bootstrapping, building a team, using mentors, and putting himself in rooms that force him to grow.

If you are a student, an aspiring entrepreneur, or someone trying to recover after life forces a pivot, this conversation will hit you right where you are.

Key themes: resilience, discipline, mentorship, momentum, entrepreneurship, and turning setbacks into purpose.
