Reggie Walker Bio:


Reggie Walker Grew up a military brat. He had the blessing of
living in situations where he was a minority, part of the
majority population, situations he had money, and situations
where they were so poor, that he had to get food from the church.
All of these different circumstances aided in creating a very
unique perspective in taking on the world.





From the age of 4 to 12 he was molested by a family friend.
Growing up and through the sports realm, he experienced physical,
mental, and emotional abuse. These unfortunate events had a
profound impact on his mental well-being. To combat the effects
of trauma, he funneled all his feelings and emotions into sports.
Sports became a saving grace in dealing with a mind filled with
toxicity from the trauma he experienced. Sports became an
environment in which he excelled, leading him to be a top high
school football player, a college football starter, and eventual
NFL athlete and team captain for 7 years.





In retirement, his journey of healing involved two stints at a
treatment facility which led him to create the “Game Within the
Game.” A college-accredited course, Game Within the Game, was
built to help athletes find the answers to how to find
themselves, their purpose, and a plan during and after their
careers. Using all the knowledge from my experiences, strategies
that have helped Reggie and others succeed in high-stress,
high-stakes environments, and knowledge from therapy. He put the”
Game Within the Game” together as an answer to questions all
athletes struggle with in leading a good, successful, productive
life during and after their athletic careers.





Reggie also partnered with David Carter to create Top Athlete
Life; a course designed to help anyone become the top athlete in
their own life. A course built with the skills to build the
understanding of the mental strength and dexterity needed to be
successful and whatever avenue you chose for yourself.





Reggie has also become a mental, physical, and sexual abuse
survivor advocate, TEDx speaker, keynote speaker, and consultant
for individuals and businesses. With his unique perspective from
my varied experiences, he has found himself to be of value in
many different environments as a leader and problem solver.





Reggie’s goal is to help those who don’t have guidance, learn the
essentials to guide themselves toward their dreams and goals.
Teach them to find peace and confidence within themselves and
master the techniques to become strategists in their own lives.
To master the skills, knowledge, and flexibility required to win
the game against themselves. Their only REAL competitor.
