S3 Ep4 - The Intersection of Sports, Business, and Personal Growth with Ted Rath

Send us a text

In this compelling episode of "The Motion of Gratitude," host Shannon Missimer sits down with Ted Rath, the Vice President of Player Performance for the Philadelphia Eagles. Fresh off a season that saw all 22 starters available in Super Bowl 57, Ted shares invaluable insights from a career spanning 16 professional seasons and multiple accolades, including two NFL Strength and Conditioning Coach of the Year awards.

Join us as Ted delves into the intricacies of creating outcome-based goals, the importance of a process-focused mindset, and the concept of "zoom ability"—the ability to detach emotionally for a broader perspective. Ted discusses how these principles go beyond the realm of sports, resonating in business, personal growth, and daily life. Learn how he applies holistic approaches to performance, considering mind, body, and soul, and why deep conversations and vulnerability are essential for genuine connections.

Shannon and Ted's dialogue underscores the challenges posed by our tech-centric world, emphasizing the dual impact of overstimulation and disconnection, especially on men's ability to form deep connections. They talk about leveraging sports experiences for life's highs and lows, the role of spirituality and mental health, and the pursuit of building a meaningful legacy over merely impressive resumes.

Ted also shares practical advice on daily routines for success, including his morning "daily deposits" of worship, workout, and writing, and a unique "Toe Test" to kickstart your day. Personal anecdotes about fatherhood and intentional parenting add a touching layer to this rich conversation.
