In this episode, Jen navigates through Irving Fryar Sr.’s experiences in moving the ball, not just in his 17-year long pro football career, but also in multiple competitive industries. The duo discuss the importance of showing up even when one doesn't feel like it, making adjustments and adapting as necessary, and the concept that not everyone is meant to be with one on their journey. Irv offers valuable insights on success in life and his current projects including a number of podcasts and his ministry.
