Ed Latimore explains how growing up in the projects shaped his instincts for survival, how getting out of his zip code showed him what was actually possible in life, and how losing himself in alcohol forced a complete reinvention. He talks about the turning point of joining the army, rebuilding discipline from scratch, and how pursuing a professional boxing career taught him to commit to something fully for the first time. This is about escaping the default path—and what it actually takes to build yourself from the ground up.
