Jerome Bettis on Detroit Roots, Steelers Culture & Men’s Heart Health | Health Is Wealth
Hall of Famer. Detroit kid. Heart-health advocate.
In Episode 7 of Health Is Wealth, Dr. Myron Rolle sits down with Pro Football Hall of Famer Jerome “The Bus” Bettis for a powerful conversation about the choices that shaped his life—from a childhood spent in bowling alleys to the culture shock (and growth) of Notre Dame, and the hard lessons learned in L.A. before finding a true winning standard in Pittsburgh.
Jerome shares the preparation and recovery habits that kept him durable (including wisdom from Franco Harris), reflects on head contact and today’s CTE awareness, and opens up about losing his father to a heart attack—fueling his advocacy for men’s heart health and Lp(a) screening.
Topics include:
Detroit upbringing—and how bowling kept him off the streets
Notre Dame, Lou Holtz, and adapting to a higher standard
Rams to Steelers: the difference a winning culture makes
Preparation, rehab, and off-season discipline (Franco Harris advice)
Helmet contact, longevity, and CTE awareness today -Winning the Super Bowl in his hometown, Detroit
Losing his father to a heart attack; why Lp(a) screening matters
Travel, sleep, and nutrition timing for long-term health
