Win At Home First

Tackle What's Next with Eric Wood, former NFL player and 2x Walter Payton Award winner


Listen Later

This week's podcast has received great feedback already!

I was fortunate enough to have Eric Wood, Former NFL player for the Buffalo Bills join me on the 'Win at Home First' podcast.

His story is one that I think so many of us can relate to. I know, I know, not the NFL player part, but the disappointment part.

45 minutes before his son was born, Eric got news his NFL career was over!

Similarly to many of us, from time to time, he would take his identity to what he did.

Who is he if he is no longer in the NFL?

What value will he bring to others when he loses the status?

I believe this episode can help all of us when it comes to tying our identity, to WHO we are, instead of WHAT we do. Plus he wins at home and in his faith - great conversation!

In this episode, you’ll discover… 

 

What is the key trait to win at home and at work? (1:20)

How Eric stays intentional, despite being busy. (2:15)

‘What's next’ for Eric? (7:03)

‘Dad, you sound angry. (17:21)

His football career is suddenly over. (24:50)

Identity. Why is it so important? (32:53)

 

Eric’s Bio: 

Eric Wood is a former NFL center for the Buffalo Bills where he was an immediate starter, 2 time Walter Payton Man of the Year nominee, and a pro bowler. Eric played his entire 9-season NFL career for the Bills before an unexpected spinal injury ultimately ended his on-field career in 2018. Now, he has a clear direction for what he’d like to do in his post-playing career.
