This week Erin and Michael have the pleasure of interviewing Pratik Patel, a motivated and insightful coach, Registered Dietitian, author and advisor. Pratik walks us through his trajectory of learning about health, fitness and human behaviors that led him all the way to a groundbreaking role in the NFL. Through his passion for personal growth and humility to make some missteps along the way, Pratik shares some of his triumphs and (we think more importantly) some of the lessons that apply to sport, career and life.
There's a bit of everything in this episode: philosophy, humor, reality and an inside look into the world of football at its highest ranks. We hope you get something out of hearing Pratik's story...we think there's a lesson for everyone here.
Follow Pratik on Instagram @pratikxpatel or find him on Facebook under Pratik Patel. He just dropped his own podcast, The Man on Fire Podcast on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/65N1Y9MzoKe1DAA3DF2lKX
