There are few bigger personalities than Shaquille O'Neal, and even fewer performers with a list of achievements as long as his: his 4x NBA Champion status speaks for itself, but he stood alone as one of the most dominant athletes in history during his prime, at one stage winning the regular season MVP, All Star MVP, and Finals MVP all in the same year. It wasn't always like this for Shaq though: in this exclusive interview he openly admits he's got lots of practice at overcoming challenges, having found himself as the low man on the totem pole in different arenas - from sports to music to business - multiple times along the journey. Recounting his childhood growing up in a military family, from the projects of New Jersey, and then through Germany and Texas, this chat goes deep into the Big Aristotle's philosophies on learning, leadership and living your best life.
