Welcome to the show folks. This is wrestling changed my life. Here we go.

I sat my hotel and I said I hate this feeling. I don't ever want to feel this way again

and I'm never going to lose another match.

We can endure anything and adapt and pivot and change. Wrestling gave us that ability.

I would say nothing in life has impacted me more than the things wrestling has taught me in terms of

self-reflection resilience. 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 through the sport of wrestling.

For me, wrestling saved my 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. Thought me humility. Nothing can hum humble you more than wrestling.

I think it's the learning to adapt, right?

You learn, you learn how to adapt, you learn how to solve problems.

You know, if I look back at my time, I stood at wrestling wrestling if they gave me one thing more than anything else it's mental toughness
