If you're going to the NCAA tournament next week in Detroit, Michigan, make sure you stop by our happy hour.

It's taking place Thursday, March 17th in between session one and session two at Hockey Town Cafe.

It's a sports bar within walking distance to Little Caesars Arena.

We're hosting it with stalemates.

We'll have an open tab. We'll have some merch. We'll have a lot of good laughs. Good fun.

Next Thursday, be there or be square. Now let's get to the episode with Olympic champion, David Taylor.

I was just on a different level at that tournament. The whole thing, you know, in preparation.

When I got there, I was just, I had checked every box in preparation.

So there was no doubt in my mind.

We can adore anything and adapt and pivot and change.

Refling gave us that ability.

I would say nothing in life has impacted me or the things Rafsen has taught me in terms of self-reflection, resilience.

Toughness. 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 where I'm at today would not be there without the values and basically the lessons I've learned to 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.

You know, if I look back my time, that's good wrestling. If you give me one thing more than anything else, it's mental toughness.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to the Wrestling Change My Life podcast.
