TOUGH TALKS - E031 - Garrett Richards - Converting Adversity Into Fuel

Garrett Richards is one the Major League Baseball’s best starting pitchers. He plays for the San Diego Padres and, at the time of this recording, is recovering from Tommy John surgery and will hopefully return to action this post-season. And if not, for sure at the beginning of the 2020 season. --- Garrett is one of the more humble professional athletes you can meet and he is also one of the most resilient. He has had several reasons to cave, but instead, he decides to take the “roadblocks” and use them as fuel from which to grow. --- Our interview was recorded live at our favorite Craft Beer House/Sports Bar, The Hungry Monk in Chandler, AZ where he and I actually first met about 9 years ago. Enjoy. --- https://christopherdorris.com/tough-talks-garrett-richards-converting-adversity-into-fuel/ --- If you enjoyed this content and you are not getting notifications of new posts, then I invite you to signup to my list.
