Stepping Into Your Greatness, with Ray Lewis

In today’s episode, I’m shifting gears slightly.   I’ve decided to repurpose an interview I took part in earlier this year with a very dear friend of mine and former NFL star, Ray Lewis! I was fortunate enough to be featured on his podcast, Everyday Greatness, where we discussed all of the home truths and complexities that are so prevalent when it comes to personal development. We also speak on the very real and confronting issue of ingrained racism. In this interview, I open up about an extremely significant experience I faced in my younger years, which acted as a catalyst to many of the limiting and harmful beliefs I had regarding my race. So many of the opinions I hold today have been born out of the persistency and commitment I’ve had towards my own self-worth and I hope that by sharing these lessons, you can walk away feeling more enriched and resilient than ever before.   Tune in to Episode 25 of Cure For The Common Life to hear the full interview!Some Questions Ray Asks:What led you to partnering with Tony Robbins and pursuing the field of personal development back in 1986?
