It's an exciting weeklies in gentlemen. We just released our first documentary film.

It's a seven minute film on Gabe Dean and his return to the sport. Check it out now on the

Wrestling Change My Life YouTube channel or click on the link in this show notes. Enjoy it folks.

Let's get to the interview. You know, you'll see a kid put it all out there and then, you know,

very often it doesn't pan out and you're kind of watching go through this painful experience and

I remember just watching this kid and I had to get back out on the mat to go coach somebody else

and I started getting really emotional myself and I, you know, I started turning up and crying and

I needed to find a way to be tough again because I had to get out there and go coach somebody else.

You know, it's a rollercoaster ride. Another guy, another guy and I remember just

put my teeth together and saying, you know, you know, in the kid's name was Cole. It's Cole, you know,

I don't know what everything's all about but I can tell you this. You've earned the right. We have

earned the right to feel this crap. We can adore anything and adapt and pivot and change.

Wrestling gave us that ability. I would say nothing in life has impacted me or the things

wrestling has taught me in terms of self-reflection, resilience. Stop it. Some guys have it,

some guys don't. Adversity, 100% how to pick myself up and be a man after I failed.

And everything that has shaped my life and what I'm at today would not be there without the values

and basically the lessons I've learned through the sport of wrestling. For me, wrestling is saying

a life because it allowed me to focus and channel my energy.

We're fortunate if you wrestled because if you wrestled, natural talent helps but it's

5% of the ingredient. It pales in comparison to heart and technique and effort.

It humbled me, taught me humility. Nothing can humble you more than wrestling.

I think it's the learning to adapt, right? You learn how to adapt. You learn how to solve problems.
