Episode notes
🎙️ The FocalFlip Podcast | Episode 58 “Built Different — The Mamba Mentality of Brenden Stowers” In Episode 58 of The FocalFlip Podcast, I sit down with Brenden Stowers, Assistant Women’s Basketball Coach at Northern Kentucky University, to unpack a story of drive, discipline, and heart that started long before the sidelines of Division I hoops.
Brenden opens up about his early days on the court — the lessons learned from his father, the fire that was built in local gyms, and unforgettable moments that revealed the switch inside him — moments that define what it truly means to compete with purpose.
From the courts of Independence, Kentucky to coaching at NKU, Brenden shares how his passion evolved from player to mentor, carrying the same intensity and “Mamba Mentality” that shaped his game into the way he now develops others.
