NASHVILLE, TN —Celebrated NCAA athlete and Meharry medical student, Nantambu Fentress offers insight and complete transparency on the success and failures of achieving his life-long dream in his inspiring new book. In Faith and Follow-Through: A Dream Conquered, the young Renaissance man shares the blue print to defying the odds and the power of persistence in today’s world.
“I realized that I was selfish. When people asked about my story, I was uncomfortable answering because I didn’t want it to sound as if I was bragging. I was once told that my story wasn’t for me, but it was for the masses out there who needed to hear it,” Fentress says. “It was then that I understood the purpose of my story, it’s to empower those who have been discouraged. Many have inquired about my story, and few have actually suggested I write a book…well, here it is.”
The author uses his personal journey to speak on three keys to victory: Faith, Adversity, and Purpose. He adds that one must be intentional in every action taken and never allow anyone to plant a seed of doubt into their being. The book addresses how many of today’s youth have dreams to be great and do grand things in life. Yet, the author explains that a common issue is not understanding the importance of formulating an effective game plan. Nantambu had a recent book signing at the upscale store Allen Edmonds in the Green Hills area. The event was covered by 102.5 The Game, due to Nantambu Fentress having been such a gifted NCAA athlete.
