UNLOCKED with Rachel Scheer & Lauren Ungeldi

In this episode of Unlocked, we sit down with Trent Shelton—former NFL wide receiver, best-selling author, and one of the most powerful motivational voices of our generation.After playing for teams like the Colts, Seahawks, and Washington, Trent walked away from the game and into an identity crisis. Everything he thought defined him—status, success, performance—was gone. And what came next wasn’t a highlight reel. It was heartbreak, rock bottom, and the quiet unraveling no one talks about.But instead of staying there, Trent picked up his phone, hit record, and started speaking raw truth—first to himself, then to the world. Those two-minute videos became a global movement, reaching over 60 million people every week.In this conversation, we get real about: - Burnout culture & rebuilding from breakdown - Identity, self-worth, and the pain of letting go - The loneliness of growth—and rejection from the people closest to you - What it really means to love yourself and protect your peace - The gap between who the world sees—and who you really areLearn More about Trent's Books, Podcast, and RehabTime at https://www.trentshelton.comFollow Trent Shelton on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/trentsheltonFollow Rachel on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/rachelscheer/Follow Lauren on Instagram at  https://www.instagram.com/laurenungeldi/Whether you're struggling with gut issues, hormone imbalances, or simply want to optimize your overall well-being, Rachel and her team at the RSN Institute are here to help you thrive.
