NFL legend Emmitt Smith joins T.D. Jakes for a powerful and transparent conversation about legacy, leadership, and life beyond football.

A three-time Super Bowl champion, Super Bowl MVP, Pro Football Hall of Famer, and the NFL’s all-time leading rusher, Emmitt reflects on growing up in Pensacola, learning discipline from his mother Mary Smith, and caring for his grandmother as a child. He shares how those early lessons shaped his commitment to philanthropy, financial literacy, and long-term thinking.

The conversation dives into wealth, trusts, tax strategy, blockchain, XRP, digital currency, and why athletes must learn to leverage money instead of just earning it. Emmitt also speaks candidly about mentoring his son E.J. Smith through the NFL draft process, parenting differently than his own father, and what it means to help your children forge their own identity.

They also discuss Shedeur Sanders, the Dallas Cowboys, Troy Aikman, Michael Irvin, Patrick Mahomes, Tom Brady, Dak Prescott, and the mindset required to stay relevant after the roar of the crowd fades.

From Dancing with the Stars to the New York Stock Exchange, this episode is about evolving, staying disciplined, and preparing for your next chapter.

Deputy U.S. Treasury Secretary Adewale Adeyemo — who served in both the Obama White House and under President Biden — joins T.D. Jakes for a powerful and transparent conversation about leadership, inflation, economic policy, artificial intelligence, and America’s global influence. 

As one of the highest-ranking Nigerian American officials in U.S. history, Adeyemo shares behind-the-scenes insight into guiding the U.S. economy through historic turbulence — from supply chain disruption and inflation to overseeing sanctions that shape global conflict and diplomacy. He explains how economic tools have become central to national security and why trust, stability, and long-term thinking are essential to maintaining America’s position in the world.

The conversation also explores financial literacy, economic mobility, and access to capital for small businesses and underserved communities. Adeyemo speaks candidly about representation in positions of power and the responsibility that comes with shaping policies that affect millions of families.

Bishop Jakes and Adeyemo further discuss emerging technologies like artificial intelligence, digital finance, and the future of work — and what today’s leaders must do to prepare the next generation for an economy defined by rapid transformation.

Rooted in faith, guided by discipline, and driven by service, this episode offers a rare look inside the mindset of a leader operating at the center of global economic power — and the principles that sustain him in moments of pressure and consequence.
