Today we've got our first former NFL player on the podcast, and we're going straight for the cultural jugular -
Weslye Saunders experienced the high stakes 'No Pain, No Gain" culture of the NFL firsthand, and his physical and mental health paid dearly for our entertainment. After 4 seasons in the NFL, Wes had to contend with debilitating injuries that put him on the path to health autonomy and personal ownership of his future and well-being.
Today we're diving into a range of topics, including the massive cultural blindspot of brain damage in NFL players, how one might go about reclaiming their vitality and weening themselves off of the pain-killer culture promoted by the NFL, and what Wes is working on in his booming entrepreneurial career post-professional football.
