In this episode of Insightful Player®, Chrissy Carew has a profound conversation with Kevin Reilly, whose life after sports transformed into a journey of resilience and inspiration. After his professional sports career was unexpectedly cut short due to cancer, Kevin navigated the challenging transition from athlete to survivor with remarkable strength.
We delve into his inspiring recovery and how he reinvented himself in life after sports, now making an impact as an author, professional speaker, and broadcaster. His book, "Tackling Life," offers insights into overcoming adversity and finding new purpose beyond the playing field.
One of Kevin's Guiding Principles... Give other people something to smile about every day, especially those days when you can't find anything to smile about yourself. Join us as we explore Kevin's incredible story and the lessons he shares on perseverance, giving back, and living a fulfilling life after sports.
In each episode of Insightful Player®, we interview NFL players & other professional athletes to help transform our culture to be inclusive, kinder and more loving. We hope to turn everyone into Insightful Players in their own lives.
