This week on the Rise & Grind Weekend Show, we sit down with Toledo native James Starks for an inspiring conversation about perseverance, purpose, and pivoting through life’s challenges.

From his early days at St. Francis de Sales High School, to becoming an All-American at Capital University, James shares what it took to elevate his game both on and off the field. He also reflects on earning his Master’s degree from Kent State University while continuing to chase greatness.

James opens up about achieving his NFL dream by signing with the Cincinnati Bengals—and the adversity he faced after a career-altering injury. But his story doesn’t stop there.

Transitioning from football to broadcasting, James found a new calling and brought his talents back home to Toledo, where he served the community for 5 years through 13abc.

This episode is packed with motivation, real talk about setbacks, and a powerful reminder that your journey doesn’t end when plans change—it evolves.

🎙️ Tap in, get inspired, and keep grinding.
