"PERMANENT" IS JUST AN OPINION.

Medical Consensus:
Career-Ending Injury. Amputation Risk.

My Consensus: Challenge Accepted.

Most doctors told me the limitations were fixed.
They were working off decades-old textbooks and data.

I was working off a delusionally-confident vision.

I’m Chris Eversley.
I survived a statistical impossibility—
a catastrophic knee dislocation
complicated by a vascular bypass and nerve failure.

I didn't just rehab; I re-wired my nervous system and defied the medical literature
to walk when many thought I wouldn’t.

I don't just teach resilience. I engineer it.

Here's What I Know About
Creating Transformative Change

I've been the guy who had it all figured out.
Professional basketball career, clear path, championship-level confidence.
Then a catastrophic knee dislocation severed the blood supply to my leg,
nearly cost me the limb, and forced me to rebuild everything from scratch.

I've been the guy starting over at 33.
Learning to walk again while figuring out what the hell I was supposed to do with my life.
Launching a business from a hospital bed.
Discovering that sometimes your biggest breakdown becomes your greatest breakthrough.

I've been the guy who found his way through.
Not by grinding harder or "staying positive," but by learning how to navigate uncertainty,
adapt when the game changes, and surround myself with the right team.

Now I help others do the same.

The Same Frameworks That Rebuilt My Leg Now Rebuild Organizations

You're not here because you need inspiration. You're here because you need results.

Whether you're developing corporate leaders who need to perform under pressure or student-athletes navigating the transition to life after sport, you need measurable change, not motivational speeches.

I bring frameworks built from necessity, not theory. The same systematic approach that helped me literally rewire my nervous system to walk again now helps teams navigate their own impossible rebuilds.

The difference: I can prove it works. With data.

SERVICES

  • What is it?
    A 24-question assessment measuring six critical leadership capabilities: Focus, Adaptability, Composure, Teamwork, Decision-Making Under Pressure, and Transition Navigation.
    _____________________________

    How did it come to be?
    I built it from lived experience.

    1. As a professional athlete, I learned how to perform when stakes were highest.

    2. As a tech employee, I saw how corporate teams operated under different kinds of pressure.

    3. As an injury survivor, I had to navigate the ultimate life transition.

    4. As a business owner, I needed frameworks I could prove actually worked.

    The Index pulls from all of it - distilled into six measurable capabilities that determine whether someone thrives or breaks when the path forward isn't obvious.

    Let’s Discuss Your Gaps

  • Built with sports psychology, not corporate translation.

    Your student-athletes dominate under pressure on the court. But NIL deals, transfer portal decisions, and life after sport? That's a different game - and most career centers aren't built for it.

    I played professional basketball. Won an NCAA championship. Then had to navigate my own forced transition when injury ended my career. I know what athletes face when the scoreboard stops defining success.

    The Full Process:

    Week 1: Baseline Assessment
    Athletes take The Overtime Index. We measure how they currently perform under pressure and navigate transition - on and off the court.

    Week 2-3: Custom Workshop
    Built around athlete-specific challenges: NIL navigation, transfer portal decisions, personal branding, entrepreneurship, life after sport. Frameworks rooted in sports psychology and performance science, not generic career advice.

    Week 4-12: Implementation Support
    Coaching staff toolkit with reinforcement strategies. Your team has the resources to support ongoing athlete development.

    Day 90: Re-Assessment
    Athletes retake the Index. You get measurable growth data to show ADs, parents, and donors that your program is developing leadership-ready graduates, not just players.

    Ideal for:

    • NCAA Division I/II programs with 200+ student-athletes

    • Athletic departments with dedicated student-athlete development staff

    • Programs serious about preparing athletes for life beyond sport
