Spiritual Growth Is Harder Than The NFL (Eben Britton)

Eben Britton is a former NFL offensive lineman turned spiritual teacher, podcast host, and breathwork facilitator who spent six years in the league before embarking on a profound journey of personal transformation. After leaving football in 2014 at 328 pounds, Eben has become a yoga teacher, men's group leader, and retreat facilitator who helps others navigate their darkest moments.

In this conversation, he shares that rock bottom isn't the end of your story. It's often the beginning of your real one. What struck me most about our conversation is how Eben has learned to treat every breakdown as a breakthrough in disguise, transforming his most painful moments into his greatest sources of wisdom and service.
