Welcome to the Builder of All Things Podcast—where we go beyond the pages of the book and explore into the Author’s Cut! 🔥 Join Richie Breaux and Ray Bisnar as they break down each chapter in micro-episodes, giving you the behind-the-scenes insights, deeper wisdom, and real-life applications—just like a Director’s Cut for a book.

From Backyard Dreams to Real-Life Lessons: How Basketball, Fatherhood & Faith Shaped My Journey 🏀
In this episode, we dive deep into the heart behind sports fandom, identity, and the unexpected ways life teaches us through loss, love, and legacy. Richie shares how growing up in Hawaii with no NBA team led him to Derrick Rose and the Bulls—but it was Steph Curry’s rise at Davidson that truly sparked something deeper.
You'll hear about:
* Why Richie chose the Warriors and how his wife became part of that journey
* His early love for players like Sean Kemp and Penny Hardaway
* What it felt like to “miss the league” and process that loss as a former athlete
* The power of parenting—especially a father’s challenge and a mother’s belief
* How watching Steph Curry helped him heal and shift his perspective on greatness
This conversation is about way more than sports. It’s about how our childhood dreams, even the ones we don’t achieve, shape who we become. It’s about rediscovering purpose when the plan changes—and realizing that greatness isn’t just something we watch, it’s something we grow into.
