About this episode

Do You Have What It Takes to Win When Life Plays Rough?


In this electrifying mashup episode, I’m joined by an all-star lineup of thought leaders and game-changers, including Deion Sanders, Tim Grover, Trent Shelton, Dr. Taryn Marie, and Garrain Jones. Together, we explore the true essence of resilience, leadership, and the mindset required to play hurt and still dominate both on and off the field.


Coach Prime, Deion Sanders, shares his hard-earned wisdom on leading with purpose and playing through pain—not just on the field, but in life. His philosophy of “never having a bad day, only bad moments” is a masterclass in turning adversity into strength. Tim Grover, who’s coached legends like Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant, delves into the obsession and preparation required to win relentlessly. He reminds us that the road to paradise starts in hell, and only those willing to endure can truly claim greatness.


Trent Shelton opens up about his journey of facing life’s toughest challenges, including his mother’s battle with cancer, and how he transformed personal pain into a mission of global impact. Dr. Taryn Marie reveals the power of rewriting your narrative, teaching us how healing is our responsibility, even when the pain isn’t our fault. And Garrain Jones reminds us that returning to our childlike authenticity can unlock a joy and freedom that fuels transformation.


Key Takeaways:

- Playing Hurt: Deion Sanders on how resilience and preparation allow us to thrive despite setbacks.

- Winning Habits: Tim Grover’s insights into the relentless discipline of the world’s greatest athletes.

- Own Your Pain: Trent Shelton’s powerful testimony about finding purpose in adversity.

- Rewrite Your Story: Dr. Taryn Marie on how changing your narrative can reshape your life.

- Rediscover Joy: Garrain Jones encourages us to reconnect with our authentic selves to find fulfillment.


Winning isn’t easy, and it’s not always glamorous. But as we uncover in this episode, the real victories come when you embrace the struggle, stay the course, and refuse to quit. These conversations aren’t just lessons—they’re the playbook for building an unbreakable mindset and achieving the greatness you were born for.


Join us and step into the arena—you’re closer to your breakthrough than you think.
