NFL veteran Anthony Newman | Avoiding the professional athlete curse

My guest this week is Anthony Q. Newman who played 12-years in the NFL (Rams, Saints, & Raiders) and is now a talk show host and radio personality. Before that, he was a highly decorated college football player out of the University of Oregon (Go Ducks). Anthony shares some poignant moments when he finished playing professionally and the curse that many professional athletes have to battle when they are done playing their sport. Anthony was inspired at a young age to give back to the athletes in Oregon. Since realigning himself and what his new passion is, he has had an amazing amount of success. Have a listen to his journey.What we discussed:The importance of doing the "homework" when it comes to relationshipsMoments when you were told you weren't good enoughThe reason why most people view passion as angerThe biggest difference between good & bad leadershipA conversation with Al Davis that created a fan for lifeHow to align your passion with your purposeThe best advice Anthony would give his 22-year-old selfConnect w/Anthony:WebsiteLet's connect:My book (The Ultimate Playbook for High Achievement) LinkedInIGFacebookwebsiteHigh Achievers Academy*Get you a UV Brite water bottle!!
