Description: For so long, so many of our Pivot followers have asked when we will interview each other and share our own takes on certain personal questions we often wonder about but never have time to dig in and find out ... .so we are finally doing it! That’s right, on this episode of the Pivot, in partnership with Fanatics, Ryan, Fred, and Channing switch it up and dive into one another’s stories by interviewing each other, leaning into their own vulnerabilities while learning the how and why of who they are today and where they see themselves in the future. The conversation kicks off with football, talking about the early youth years to how each got their big NFL break to the things they would have done differently to any regrets and how their respective teams shaped their legacy. Ryan opens up about his undrafted journey to battling Sickle Cell to winning a Super Bowl, and how those experiences furthered his "underdog mentality"—something that still fuels him today. Fred is honest about missing the game and wishing he could still play while Channing doesn't miss it at all. Channing finds it ironic that Fred feels a void because in the history books, Fred is one of the best to ever play his position. But despite Fred's legendary career, he opens up on his own struggles, through dealing with the "Fragile Freddy" stages to not yet making the Hall of Fame and the emotional toll public perception took on him. Channing gets real about the balance (or lack of) between football and everything else he did away from the game…revealing some regrets about the choices he made and how it affected his career. Understanding that life always moves at a fast pace, doesn't mean we shouldn’t stop and realize the reach of our choices is far beyond the field and what we contribute each day is how we will be remembered long after we are gone. On the eve of Ryan’s 45th birthday, he reflects on where he is today and the mission he tries to live out in all his life moments not wanting his Super Bowl win to be the single accomplishment everyone references with more focus on the impact he makes each day and how he’s seen for his contributions as well as how he’s viewed by the people closest to him. Ryan shares a personal story of a childhood friend recently passing away and how age is creeping up on us and that when it’s all said and done, he doesn’t want to be defined by his past or a single accomplishment but by who is today and his current mission. Posing the same question to the guys, Ryan asks what the future holds for each of his co-hosts. Channing shares his vision about making the Crowder name mean something, both for his family and business, while Fred’s focus is on his kids and teaching them to be strong minded and live with integrity. The depth of vulnerability and authenticity displayed in the voice of Ryan, Channing and Fred is something that will resonate with all of us as we continue to Pivot through our own lives and journeys.
