Chad speaks openly about the criticism he faced, the battles that forged his character, and the emotional and physical demands of pursuing excellence year after year.

Reece and Chad explore identity beyond football, the transition into coaching, the importance of surrounding yourself with the right people and the responsibility of becoming a mentor and role model for the next generation. Chad shares powerful lessons about resilience, delayed gratification, self-belief, and the unwavering commitment required to build a legacy that lasts.
