Summary

I had the incredible privilege of joining Mike Tyson for a deep, soulful conversation that went far beyond what I expected. Mike shared profound insights about his journey from being driven by ego to finding peace through plant medicine and self-love. We explored vulnerable topics like masculinity, transformation, and what it truly means to be "good" versus "great." Mike opened up about his experiences with family, prison, bankruptcy, and finding redemption through honesty and growth. What struck me most was Mike's incredible wisdom and spiritual evolution – a side of him many haven't seen. This conversation was less about boxing and more about the raw, authentic journey of becoming better men.

0:55.9	identity into a new man. And I'm excited to see what Mike continues to do with his life moving

1:07.4	And the entire time, they were smoking marijuana in this kind of contained room. So it was
1:12.9	actually an interesting test for me to see if I could be present while this was happening on his
1:17.5	show Hot Boxing. So without further ado, let's dive into this interview with the one and only
1:23.0	Mike Tyson. What do you understand about the world? What do you understand about it? And what would you say to your 20-year-old self
