108. Winning Life with Faith and Football| Riko Jeffers

I sat down with Riko Jeffers this week, a former Red Raider who's just as passionate about emotional expression as he is about football. His journey, seeped in resilience, faith, and a strong will, takes us from a split household to the NFL, with pitstops at art, theatre, and Texas Tech. Riko’s story is nothing short of inspiring, as he takes us on a rollercoaster ride of ups and downs - from the highs of discovering his love for football to the lows of an ACL injury and not getting drafted.But it isn't just about football. Riko also speaks candidly about his struggle with dyslexia, how he used art and theatre as an emotional outlet, and the importance of emotional expression in men, a trait he proudly attributes to his upbringing in a household with a mother and two sisters.Riko's story is a beacon of hope, an inspiration that teaches us the power of faith, resilience, and a positive support system. @riko_jeffersChildhood, Parenting, and Emotional Expression (10:20) Reflecting on Past Decisions and Football (14:00) Love for Art and Football (19:39)Overcoming Challenges at Texas Tech (24:48) Navigating Challenges and Finding Faith (31:43) Finding Faith and Overcoming Challenges (39:20)College Football Leadership and Team Dynamics (50:35)Chasing Dreams and Finding Purpose (1:01:50)Overcoming His Mind Bully (1:06:00)✅ FOLLOW ME HERE:https://instagram.com/kingno_?igshid=OGQ5ZDc2ODk2ZA==https://instagram.com/mindbullypodcast?igshid=MmIzYWVlNDQ5Yg==♥️ https://www.buzzsprout.com/1855313/supporters/newSupport the showhttps://instagram.com/kingno_?igshid=OGQ5ZDc2ODk2ZA==https://instagram.com/mindbullypodcast?igshid=MmIzYWVlNDQ5Yg==♥️ https://www.buzzsprout.com/1855313/supporters/new
