Josh Lindblom: Family, Leadership, & Life Lessons From A Baseball Journey

This week Andrew talks with newly retired MLB pitcher Josh Lindblom. Over the course of 15 years, Josh played for six MLB teams and two teams in the KBO League in Korea, where he was named the KBO’s Most Valuable Player in 2019. Andrew asked Josh about his recent decision to retire—and that question led to a deeply personal conversation about far more than baseball. Andrew and Josh discuss family, parenting, leadership, and everything Josh learned from a career that took him and his family across the globe. You’ll hear practical lessons on how to navigate change, tips to excel in new environments, ways to succeed when you aren’t at your best, and so much more. Show Highlights:(2:46) - Decision to retire from pro baseball(3:02) - How Josh knew it was time to step away(3:30) - Family & parenting(9:06) - Modeling behavior for our kids(10:04) - Experience playing in Korea(10:44) - How to think about new experiences(15:44) - Preparation(16:57) - Moving forward when you don’t feel your best(18:36) - Lessons from teammate Juan Pierre(20:17) - Preparing for MLB season(21:30) - Hitting your stride at ideal time(22:08) - Qualities of great teammates(24:11) - Advice for young players(25:25) - Creating a low-stress environment(27:30) - Josh’s new role with BrewersTwitter: @andrewhmosesInstagram: @AndrewMoses123NEWSLETTERSign up for e-mails to keep up with the podcast at everybodypullsthetarp.com/newsletter
