Dhani Jones spent 11 seasons in the NFL as a middle linebacker, the linchpin of the defensive unit. Since then, he has become a leader in other arenas: hosting TV shows, launching charities, and investing in startups.  His passion is bringing out the best in others.  In this episode, he pushes back against the notion of lowering standards to minimize disparities.  He explains why adversity, competition, and the pursuit of excellence are some of the best ways to lift up others and improve their lives.
