あらすじ・解説
In this episode, we sit down with Jeremy Gray, a former NC State football player turned entrepreneur, community leader, and Alabama State Representative for the 83rd District. From his early days in Opelika to playing sports and stepping into politics, Jeremy shares how leadership, influence, and personal branding have shaped his journey.
He discusses the importance of influence over authority, leading with empathy, and the power of compromise in politics to drive real change.
With an untraditional path into politics, Jeremy reflects on resilience, adapting to challenges, and staying focused on the bigger picture—even when progress feels slow. He emphasizes knowing who you are, how to navigate the system, and where to draw the line as a leader. His ultimate goal? Leaving his community better than he found it.
