Metta World Peace

Metta World Peace, formerly known as Ron Artest, wants to make the world a better place.

Despite his focus on positivity today, Metta explains how his rough upbringing led to an equally rough way of asserting himself. He talks to Dan about his journey managing his anger, about why he used to fight through his troubles, and how therapy helped him learn to express himself differently. Metta reveals what he calls "the worst period" of his life after the infamous "Malice at the Palace" and the depression he had to deal with in the aftermath. He also shares his personal career highlights playing alongside the greats, and his proudest moments giving back to his community since retiring. If that weren't enough, Metta drops a big announcement on his plans to shape the future of our country.
