Real pros don’t quit when things get tough—they keep showing up, pushing through, and grinding it out, even when no one’s watching.

Shawn Nelson welcomes Chris Long—former NFL star, Super Bowl champion, and host of the podcast Green Light with Chris Long—onto the show to break down the Shawnism: "Pros Keep Playing."

The two talk about why adversity is actually an opportunity, how success doesn’t change who you really are, and the importance of giving yourself the slack you’re often waiting for from others. Chris also shares insights on reframing failure, staying mentally strong, and why sometimes, the only thing separating you from a breakthrough is persistence.

This is a great chat about internal struggles, being tough and kind to yourself, and why having the right people in your corner can make all the difference. Because in life, as in football—pros keep playing.
