What happens when the baseball career ends—but the drive to compete doesn’t?
Matt LaPorta sits down with PodNumbra to share his journey from the University of Florida to the Olympics, Major League Baseball, and ultimately the world of business, investing and entrepreneurship.
A University of Florida Baseball Hall of Famer and Olympic medalist, Matt reached the highest levels of baseball before beginning an entirely new chapter after his playing days. Today, he is the Founder and Managing Partner of Wayfinder Capital Partners, where his experience as an athlete, investor and operator informs his approach to building businesses and creating long-term value.
Matt talks with PodNumbra about the lessons learned at Florida, competing on the international stage, life in professional baseball, dealing with success and adversity, and making the transition from professional athlete to entrepreneur and investor.
It’s a conversation about baseball, business, reinvention, perseverance and what comes next when the first dream is over.
Because the path to success is rarely a straight line.
